Stevenage Borough reached The Final of The FA Trophy for the third time in four years, after a comfortable aggregate victory over Conference Premier rivals Kidderminster Harriers.
A goalless Second Leg at Broadhall Way was a somewhat low key affair after Stevenage had romped to a 5-1 victory at Aggborough in the First Leg last weekend.
The Hertforshire side will now face Barrow at Wembley and will start The Final as favourites, after an impressive FA Trophy campaign.
Graham Westley’s men, who also sit top of the Conference Premier, have dispatched Ebbsfleet United, Vauxhall Motors, Dover Athletic and Workington, in addition to Semi-Final opponents Kidderminster, on the road to Wembley - scoring a remarkable 19 goals along the way.
In the First Leg, two goals apiece for Dave Bridges and Chris Beardsley, plus a Yemi Odubade strike, had seen Stevenage to an easy victory.
And although they faced a Kidderminster side keen to make amends for that defeat, their progress to The Final was always unlikely to be disrupted.
The hosts started the match brightly and almost took an early lead when Beardsley’s low cross caused mayhem in the Kidderminster area.
However, it was the visitors - playing with an adventurous four-man frontline - who had the better chances in an entertaining first-half.
The tie was more subdued after the restart and, despite chances for Odubade and Mitchell Cole, Stevenage were unable to find a way through against a Kidderminster side who regained their pride after a below par First Leg performance.
