Ilkeston v Racing Club Warwick : Live Updates

It's the big match and only a pound to get in so I'm not expecting many to be following my live updates today. But I'll be posting the updates here anyway for the supporters who are unable to attend.

Great run by Malley past two defenders but eventually he runs it out.  Have to say Racers look pretty good so far.         1-0.          10 minutes

Re: Ilkeston v Racing Club Warwick : Live Updates

Walker inches away from making it two as he can't quite connect with cross.  Better from Ilkeston now after uneasy start.  Bennett ticked off by ref for foul. Free kick to Racers on edge area.  Heads go up as ball comes over but no one connects.      1-0   15 minutes

All the junior players are now running round the pitch. There must be over a hundred of them. They're tapping supporters hands as they pass them.

Re: Ilkeston v Racing Club Warwick : Live Updates

Riveting first half with both sides attacking .  Ilkeston are leading 2-0 but i would say Racing Club edged the first half based on possession.  I can't see Ilkeston keeping a clean sheet in the second half.   Hope I'm wrong.   Come on Ilson!

Racing Club are back out early. They must be disappointed to be two down despite playing so well.   They will be looking to turn this game round and quickly.
Second Half is underway
Ilkeston are now back out and second half is underway
