WARRINGTON Rylands' task to reach the FA Vase semi finals was already hard enough.
Now, standing in their way will be a team seeking to defend the trophy they waited so long to win.
Hebburn Town, who will be making the trip to Gorsey Lane to face Dave McNabb's side at Gorsey Lane on Saturday, won through a topsy-turvy contest against Northern League rivals Consett AFC on Bank Holiday Monday to win the 2019-20 Vase final.
They twice came from behind to win 3-2 at Wembley Stadium in a contest delayed twice by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The winners of Saturday's last-eight tie, which kicks off at 3pm and will be played behind closed doors, will book a home semi final against Midland Premier League side Walsall Wood on May 15.
