This was an ordered replay after the original tie at Yarm & Eaglescliffe finished 2-2 on August 8, 2026; it was not a void, abandonment, or administrative decision. West Auckland's official site records a 3-2 win, Yarm's follow-up describes losing after scoring twice in the first half, and an independent result listing marks 3-2 as FT, supporting a regulation-time decision.
