How the action unfolded

FT: Chesterfield 1 v 0 Aldershot Town

Liam Mandeville’s sublime second-half finish secures the first win of the season for the Spireites.

No surprise given the heat but this game is slowing down now. Eight minutes to go.

Chesterfield sub - 74 minutes

Dobra off, Cooper on.

MANDEVILLE!!!

And WHAT a goal. Banks plays a brilliant pass over the top, Mandeville latches on to it, controls nicely, and finishes superbly from a very tight angle.

1-0 after 64 minutes.

Chesterfield sub - 60 minutes

Tshimanga is on, his first appearance since February after that horrible injury. He gets a standing ovation as he enters the pitch. Gyasi comes off.
