The visitors looked stronger after the break and drew level on 53 when an in-swinging free kick was not cleared and Tom Holdstock tapped home into an empty net.
On the hour Tilbury went close when a Joe Burgess free kick was headed towards goal by Tommy Barton, but the ball was cleared off the line and away to safety. The next attack saw Tilbury go back in front. Marlon Agyakwa went on a run before finding George Sykes who hit home. Stanway went straight on the attack and had a good chance from a breakaway. On 68 Tilbury confirmed progression when a quick corner from Agyakwa found Ogunwamide who fired home.
In the final minute Joe Maybanks went close for the Thurlow Nunn side, but it was Tilbury who progressed to the 1st qualifying round.
