King off, Sheckleford on.

Jones off, Akinola on.

But Reach blocks Dobra’s shot after Town win their first corner of the game.

Chesterfield don’t deal with a corner and Livermore blasts in. And just like that the game has been taken away from the Spireites. 3-0 after 54 minutes.

Grimes heads off the line

West Brom pushing for a third now.

Goal for West Brom: 2-0

A howler from King, who opts to back-heel the ball inside his own box, which is then finshed by Rogic. King has his hands on his head.

Here we go in the second-half.

Behind at the break

HT: West Brom 1 v 0 Chesterfield

The Spireites are behind at the break but they finished the half strong and are still in this tie. It was a soft goal to concede. Town have had their moments but the final bit has been missing.

What a run by Dobra

He beats three or four Baggies players before he reached a dead-end in the West Brom penalty area. Wonderful run.

The left-back’s shot is parried by Button. The visitors keep the attack alive and Clements’ cross from the left is only partially punched clear by the Baggies keeper. The move ends with Mandeville volleying wide. Big cheers from the Blues fans. Better,
