Dover Athletic will play Conference North side North Ferriby United in the FA Trophy semi-finals - if they beat Bath City in Tuesday's quarter-final replay.

The two-legged semi-final against the side who ended Ebbsfleet United's campaign on Saturday will be played on February 21 and 28.

The first leg will be played at Crabble on February 21 before Dover head to Yorkshire a week later.

Wembley will host the final on March 29.

Dover boss Chris Kinnear's side will head to Somerset for the replay against the Conference South side after the dramatic 3-3 draw at Crabble last Saturday.

Ten-man Dover came from 3-1 down after striker Stefan Payne had been sent off just before half-time to keep their hopes of playing in the semi-finals for the first time since 1998 alive.

Sub Jake Reid scored the equaliser in the fourth minute of stoppage time.

Torquay United will play the winner of the FC Halifax and Wrexham tie in the other semi-final.
