Cooper’s free-kick from the edge of the box is on target but Motngomery parries it away.
Very hectic half this.
Big chance!

Goal reaction from fan writer Ben
Well, I had said the Spireites looked in complete control, but perhaps not anymore, as Woking have one back from the penalty spot. That has to be frustrating if you’re James Rowe. Your side, in desperate need of a victory, are 2-0 up and cruising, but suddenly they’ve gifted the opposition a potential path back into the game by giving away a soft penalty. James Montgomery got something on it, but it wasn’t enough to keep the ball out. Chesterfield’s lead is halved then, and let’s hope that’s as far as a potential Woking comeback is allowed to progress.
Big chance for Woking
It should be 2-2. Napa fires wide for Woking with just Montgomery to beat.
Town looking shaky now. They need to get a grip of the game again.
33 gone, 1-2.
Goal for Woking: 1-2

The hosts are back in it.
GOOOAAALLLL!!! 0-2
DINANGA!!!!
A second goal for Town and another one from a corner. Whelan swings it in, Ross fumbles it and Dinanga bundles it in. for his first goal for Chesterfield.
0-2.
