Underwood Villa v Ilkeston Town - Match Updates - Sat 14 Jul

Matchman is back for Ilkeston's second pre-season friendly against Underwood Villa at Bracken Park, Underwood this afternoon kickoff 3pm. Ilkeston are hoping for a good show of away support as a thank you to Underwood Villa who gave us a pre-season friendly last season at very short notice. Ilkeston beat Rossington Main 2-0 in their first warm up game last Saturday when several trialists took part hoping to win a place in Ilkeston's squad.  If you can't tear yourself from your television you can follow Ilkeston's game here and on the Club's twitter account. Ilkeston's media team will be fine tuning their preparations for providing another season of dedicated Ilkeston Town FC coverage.

No 5 Shaun Rickford looks strong.  Ilkeston are well on top with Green doing well down the left flank. Nearly all the play has been in Underwood's half.

Nice cross by Bennett but keeper plucks it out of the air. Great chance for Alex Marshall. He controls the ball with skill but then puts it wide. Good play by Dixon feeding Reeve but keeper saves at the expense of a corner.  Pitch is very dry and bumpy.  Lench is down needing treatment allowing the other players to have a drinks break..    1-0     30 minutes

Underwood more in the game now. Free kick just outside area but it sails over the bar. Great interception by Fairclough but he's held as he breaks free with the ball. Underwood shot goes narrowly wide. 
It's half time and Ilkeston lead 1-0.

Strong penalty appeal for Ilkeston is waved away. Hopkinson creates space for himself but his shot is too high. Rasper from Tom Marshall is only just too high. Good play by Reece Dolan for Underwood. Malachi sets Jordan wheatley away and Hopkinson can't quite turn in his cross.  Hour gone still 1-0.
