\nSixteen year old Liam Sheppard (pictured) is on the bench for Atherton. He played for them last week to become surely their youngest player to play at this level.
\nWe’re approaching kick off. Not a big crowd here today.
\nIt’s sunny and quite warm but gusty.
\nThe teams are out. Ilkeston are in their red home kit. Atherton are in black & white stripes.
\nPeep! We’re underway.
\nThe wind is playing tricks already. Ilkeston have had a couple of chances. Atherton goalkeeper Tom Donaghy did well to smother a close range shot. Then Tom Marshall’s forward ball sails out of the ground.
\nChance for Atherton as they get a free kick on the edge of the area. Lewis Thompson’s shot takes flight over the bar.
\nA Declan Eratt-Thompson shot is blocked, then Tom Marshall’s effort drifts wide.
\nIlkeston are in command but they have not yet scored.
\nJordan Scanlon fires over in a rare threat by the visitors.
\nHalf-time: Ilkeston 0 Atherton 0.
\n[HT: Notts Co 1 Harrogate 0; Derby and Forest not playing]
\nSecond half. Atherton get us underway.
\nTom Cursons is through but his shot is stopped by the oncoming Donaghy,
\nYates saves from Ethan Beckford, then –
\nGOAL for Ilkeston. Ilkeston find the net at last. Jaiden White crosses and Cursons hits a floor shot past Donaghy. 52 mins. 1-0.
\nSame pair combine again – White crosses, Cursons heads goalward but this time Donaghy saves.
\nIlkeston Substitution: Jonathan Wafula is replaced by Koby Eratt-Thompson.
\nGOAL for Ilkeston. Callum Minkley fires number two after Jamie Walker controls the ball in the area and makes the chance for him,
\n71 mins. 2-0.
\n634 at the NMG today.
\nAlex Marshall on for Declan Eratt-Thompson,
\nLet off for Atherton as the ball lands on Donaghy’s net behind the bar, then the keeper make a good save from Walker.
\nCursons is replaced by Ben Hutchinson but there’s very little time to go.
\nFree kick to Ilkeston in a good position.
\nGOAL for Ilkeston. It’s gone in. Donaghy thumps the ground in annoyance. Hutchinson the scorer. 3-0. 90 +4 mins.
