FT: Chesterfield 0 v 0 Aldershot Town

The Spireites are held to a goalless draw. Plenty of pressure in the second-half but they could not find a breakthrough.

Reaction coming up.

Whittle’s cross, Denton chests it down and Tshimanga shoots at goal but it is blocked.

Corner comes in, Williams heads over.

A big roar goes up around the ground. COME ON!!

Flashes the ball across six-yard box but there was nobody there to finish!

Four minutes remaining.

Final Blues sub - 83 minutes

Denton comes on to huge applause, his first appearance in a year after two knee injuries. Quigley goes off.

In the Aldershot box but it just won’t fall to a Chesterfield man.

Nine to go.
