HT: Chesterfield 1 v 0 Yeovil Town

Kellermann’s stunner has the Spireites in front at the break.

GOOOOOAAAALLL!!! 1-0

KELLERMANN!!!

A beauty of a half-volley from the midfielder finds the corner of the net. A goal totally out of keeping with this game.

Moments earlier, Knowles hit the crossbar for Yeovil. 1-0.

Speaking of Knowles, he has just smacked the crossbar from a wicked shot on the angle. Loach was nowhere near that.

From Yeovil’s Knowles, from about 25 yards, whistles just wide. He hit it with some power. Knowles has been a big threat for the away side.

By Miller to prevent a Yeovil counter-attack after they cleared a Chesterfield corner. Five minutes to the break.

It’s not very pretty. Not much has happened in the last few minutes.

For Yeovil’s Barclay for a blatant pull of the shirt as Quigley raced away from him down the right channel.

Maguire’s header saved

Whittle digs out a cross from the left, Maguire meets it around the penalty spot, it’s going in the corner but Smith gets fingertips on it to claw it away.

24 gone, 0-0.

This time a much more comfortable one to deny Staunton’s effort from the edge of the box. It came from another set-piece, the visitors looking dangerous from set-plays.
