Ilkeston on top but no chances yet. Ball falls nicely but Morris but his shot is charged down. Then Morris shot clips the bar. No score 10 minutes

Excellent play by Jemson. Walker shot blocked. Nothing from Lye's attack so far. Malachi creates space but Sergeant saves his shot. 0-0 18 minutes
Offline

Again excellent defending by Jemson stops a Lye attack before it's started.. Malachi heads just wide of the post from Tom Marshall's free kick. Nearest yet for Ilkeston Marshall gets past keeper and pulls it back for Morris. Free kick by Tom Marshall brilliantly saved by Sergeant. Lye are hanging on. 0-0 29 minutes

Good battling by Dixon in midfield. Lye still haven't tested Mitchell. Good cross by Bennett but no one on the end of it.
Offline

Mitchell called into action at last to collect a cross. It's been all Ilkeston but they only have one goal . Free kick to Lye 25 yards out. Lawley shot deflected for a corner. Jason Wood's header following the corner is just too high but it's another corner.. There goes the half time whistle. Ilkeston 1 Lye Town 0.
