If Carlisle United have Jimmy Glass then Leyton Orient now have Josh Keeley says manager Richie Wellens after a dramatic FA Cup victory.

The Cumbrians were famously saved from relegation out of the Football League in 1999 when their goalkeeper scored to give them a 2-1 win against Plymouth Argyle, dooming Scarborough instead.

Keeley's moment came as the O's trailed 1-0 at home to National League Oldham Athletic, Manny Monthe scoring on 47 minutes for the non-league outfit.

The keeper went up for a free-kick in the ninth minute of stoppage time and got his head to Tom James's delivery to take the second round clash to extra-time.

And the drama didn't stop there.

Dan Agyei had missed a penalty in the first period but with the game in stoppage time again, and penalties looming, he redeemed himself to knock in an Ollie O'Neill corner and hand Orient a 2-1 win, putting them into the third round.

The Glass comment came in a video, posted on the League One side's social media.

Wellens said: "I think this will go down – not the game, but the moment in the game – will go down in (history).

"Remember when Carlisle scored in the last minute, when Jimmy Glass scored a goal to stay in the league?”

He added in his press conference: “Full credit to Josh because he deserves this. He has the character and the belief and I’m pleased for him and all the team.

“I watched the first 10 minutes upstairs as I wanted to see the shape of the team and we were really poor – but we were better second half and I still think we deserved to go through.”

The Latics had taken the lead two minutes when Monthe got a touch on a long throw by Reagan Ogle to squeeze the ball into the net at the near post.

But Wellens said: “I watched their goal and no-one touched it so it shouldn’t have stood, but it’s really difficult for the officials.

“I will say our effort at the other end where Sonny Perkins scored and was given offside should have stood as an Oldham player touched the ball but I’d rather let their manager talk about the officials.”

Oldham's Micky Mellon said: “Football can be a very cruel game. Look at the bits that we would be pleased about and there was plenty.

“We were every bit as good as the League One side and but for a lot of refereeing decisions things could have been a wee bit different.

“Our support was fantastic, the referee was crap and there were big moments that these referees have got to get right.

“I prefer to concentrate on the account my players gave of themselves. They gave everything they’ve got and they will be disappointed about losing in the last heartbeat of the game from what should have been a free-kick to us.”

The draw for the third round takes place live on BBC Two at 7pm on Monday.
