Penalty shout
for Bromley as Maguire appears to pull the shirt of Bromley’s Mitchell in the box, looked a decent shout that.
Bromley’s Bridge goes on a mazy run down the right and he lets fly from distance but it goes over the bar. He hit it well, but it was too high.
Chance!
First, a lovely sweeping move gets Taylor free down the left, he delivers a low cross and Mitchell looked close to turning it in. The Blues keep the ball alive on the far side and Mitchell manages to get a shot off inside the area but it is very tame and an easy save for Cousins. Seven minutes to the break, 0-0.
30 gone
The last 10 minutes have gone very scrappy, it is stop-start. Town need to keep the ball on the floor, Bromley are mopping up any long balls.
OFF THE BAR!
Taylor smashes a volley at the far post against the crossbar from Carline’s deep cross from the right. So close! 16 played, 0-0.
10 gone
Still goalless, but Chesterfield have edged this one so far. As we expected, they are dominating possession, and the hosts are playing on the counter.
Opening minutes
Chesterfield have started brightly, winning two corners inside the first three minutes and Rowe has just curled one over the bar from just inside the area.
