FT: Weymouth 1 v 1 Chesterfield

The Spireites concede a late equaliser and have possibly lost Tshimanga to a long-term injury. They also miss the chance to go top.

Urgh.

Reaction coming up.

The ball dropped to him in the box but he couldn’t get a shot off. That was the big moment.

The hosts snatch a late equaliser on the counter through Rose. Kerr was caught in possession and the Terras broke.

Penalty appeal for Weymouth

As Rose goes down in the box but the appeals are turned down.

Still plenty of time to play after that injury to Tshimanga.

0-1.

After a long delay, Tshimanga is stretchered off. Looked like he was being given oxygen. That could be his season over. Ref didn't even book the Weymouth man.

Quigley is on.

He is on the receiving end of a strong challenge from behind by Mnoga and the stretcher is on here. This doesn’t look good.
