Blue Square Premier club Kettering Town were denied a dream Third Round Proper tie away at Manchester United as Coca-Cola League One title-favourites Leeds United needed extra-time to finally end the Poppies gallant efforts.
With the match seemingly edging towards penalties, Mike Grella put Leeds 2-1 up and Tresor Kandol then headed another for Simon Grayson's men.
It was tough on Kettering, who forced an extra 30 minutes thanks to Anthony Elding's header, but Leeds' class told in the end and a flurry of goals late on made the scoreline emphatic if not a little cruel on the visitors.
Kettering reached the Fourth Round last season before succumbing to Fulham and after a battling 1-1 draw at the Elgoods Brewery Arena in the first match against Leeds, the Poppies had high hopes of springing a cup shock.
Leeds, winners of the Cup in 1972, have been victims of giantkillings in the past. Only last year did they lose to another Blue Square Premier side in Histon, but in a frantic opening, the Whites looked in charge.
Leading scorer Jermain Beckford found space in the area but blasted his shot over the bar, then Kettering's John Dempster brilliantly blocked Luciano Becchio's shot inside the area.
But it was only a matter of time until the pressure finally told after 20 minutes. Becchio made no mistake when he was presented with another chance, powering his header home after good work from Robert Snodgrass.
Brave Kettering battled to half time only one goal down but they were hanging on for dear life 5 minutes after the break as Becchio hit the post with a header.
However, on 62 minutes former Leeds player Anthony Elding nodded home Richie Partridge's cross to stun Elland Road and give the Poppies a fighting chance in an enthralling tie.
The strike galvanised Kettering and Casper Ankergren had to be alert to deny Patridge 7 minutes later.
Dempster was in inspired form for Kettering, bravely throwing his body in front of any shot from the home side and as the time ticked towards 90 minutes, the lure of a Third Round tie away at Old Trafford seemed to make both sides more nervous.
Leeds bossed extra-time, with Snodgrass hitting the bar as the hosts peppered Kettering's goal with shots. The pressure soon became too much and Grella's goal in the 108th minute was swiftly followed up by Kandol's header as Kettering's dream faded. Grella then added a fourth in the 116th minute to add gloss to the scoreline.
There was still time for a fifth from Beckford, with the Elland Road faithful cheering at the prospect of travelling to old rivals Manchester United in the next round.
Barrow beat high-flying Blue Square Premier rivals Oxford United to book a dream tie against Premier League Sunderland in the Third Round.

Barrow turned in a fine performance in front of 2,794 spectators with Oxford only scoring a consolation in the 90th minute.
Skipper Bolland headed the hosts ahead in the 37th minute from Goodfellow's corner.
Substitute Logan fired in shortly after the break and Goodfellow all but sealed the win when his 20-yard shot was deflected in.
That left James Constable's eighteenth goal of the season for the league leaders as only a consolation.
