Its nearly kickoff time. 30 odd Ilkeston Juniors are forming a guard of honour for the two teams coming onto to the field. The players are out. Ilkeston in all red Highgate are in all pink.

Loads of kids here today Ilkesto are attacking the car park end, Highgate to kick off. We're off .......

Great early chance for Ilkeston but they fluff it. Think it was Alex Marshall one on one with keeper. Keeper did well. Ilkeston break and Highgate defender has to handle to stop the attack. 0-0 5 minutes
Offline
Wonderful saving tackle by Shaw stops Addagio. Highgate producing some good moves but no chances so far. Dixon bundled over but ref just gives a corner. 0-0 12 minutes
Offline
Wulfrunians two up at Shepshed.
Still deadlock at NMG. Reeves header goes high over the bar,

Taylor caught offside to end spell of Highgate possession. DIxon shot well held by Catlow. Highgate are strong and physical.It's going to be a tough game. Corner to Highgate. Diving header by Palmer but it's off target. 25 minutes 0-0

What a lucky escape for Highgate - shot hits a defender on the line. Ought to be 2-0 but its not. Great save by Mitchell ball comes back to Moore and his shot is deflected out. Then at the other end Reeves and Dixon combine but Dixon misses. 1-0 40 minutes

Ilkeston are edging it but Highgate look capable of scoring. Reeves can't quite break through. Long ball by Marshall finds Fyfe and he produces magic control and scores 2-0 45 minutes
Offline
Great headed clearance by Tom Marshall as Gate threaten to pull one back. Confrontation between Highgate player Sam Oji and referee after the half time whistle.

Ilkeston deservedly two up. Baker has been excellent at the back winning everything with his head.
The players are now back out for the second half and we're underway again......

Great run by Fyfe but Oji brilliantly clears just as Marshall looked sure to score. 2-0 51 minutes
