First chance of the second-half for Chesterfield as Mandeville dribbles in and out of a couple of Yeovil players. He gets a shot off inside the area but it goes over the bar.
Yeovil’s Hunt glanced a header wide from a deflected cross.
Chesterfield need to be careful here and just see this period out without conceding.
On target from Yeovil’s Wakefield. Wakefield drove past Oyeleke in midfield and made his way into the box. Grimes attempted a slide tackle but Wakefield went by him and got a shot off from a tight angle which Loach tipped behind for a corner.
The hosts keep up the pressure and have won four successive corners, King and Grimes have done well to deal with a couple of them, and then Loach claims the final one to take the pressure off.
Half-time sub
Half-time sub for Chesterfield as Gunning is replaced by King. Gunning did take a bang to the head and received treatment at one point. Looks like back three is Carline, Kerr and Grimes.
Former Spireite Yussuf is on for Yeovil.
Half-time
HT: Yeovil Town 0 v 2 Chesterfield
Goals from Manny Oyeleke (probably Grant Smith OG) and Kabongo Tshimanga. Yeovil had a goal ruled out before Chesterfield’s opener and then Grimes cleared off the line before Tshimanga doubled the lead. Gunning & Oyeleke are bossing it.
