HORSHAM YMCA crashed out of the FA Cup with a 2-0 replay defeat at Ryman League Whyteleafe.
YM boss Chris White was full of confidence having seen his team earn a 1-1 draw at Gorings Mead and dominate for large periods of the game.
But a goal at the start and very end of the match by Scott and Mackenzie ensured YM's particpation in the game's most famous competition ended.
"It's never good to give away an early goal to a side from a higher league than you," said boss Chris White.
"It was much like the first game, they were on top for 25 minutes and then we came into the game strongly."
With two minutes on the clock YM were one down, winger Ronny Green was allowed to cross and a half clearance from James Virgo was dispatched by Scott, kicking it over his head with his back to goal.
Winger Tom Lawley tested the home keeper with a shot across goal which was well saved as YM were one down at the break. The visitors were given the perfect chance to get back into the game when Shaheen Sadough was pulled down in the box.
But Richard Carter's spot kick was well saved and as it fell to Paul Williams his cross was put over on the stretch by Sadough.
Ten minutes later Sadough had another chance to score but miscued straight to the keeper. YM continued to push forward but failed to find the equaliser and Mackenzie sealed the result in stoppage time.
