  • Live Commentary

    Time:90'
    • Wycombe Wanderers
    • Stockport County
    • 90+5 That is the final whistle, all-square at Adams Park.
    • 90+3 Pilkington in on the left but his cross is poor.
    • 90+1 Woodman clearly blocks McSweeney but gets away with it - he's already been booked. Now Dickinson gets it on the right, in for Pilkington who can finish but Fielding and Williamson combine to scramble it behind.
    • 90' Five minutes of injury time being played.
    • 87' WYCOMBE SUB: John Sutton - kid brother of former Celtic, Blackburn and Chelsea striker Chris - comes on for Facey.
    • 86' Free-kick to County on the right which Fielding sees late and punches and McSweeney flies in with a half-volley but Fielding charges out to block and they survive! Now County are holding the cards and could nick a winner!
    • 85' Woodman now enters the book for a foul on McSweeney.
    • 83' The ball is headed clear by Wycombe and it drops to Gleeson WHO RELEASES A CURLING VOLLEY INTO THE ROOF OF THE NET! What a great strike, it was dipping and curling and was fast to boot, 1-1 and the Stockport fans rush onto the pitch to celebrate!
    • 82' STOCKPORT SUB: Rowe off for McSweeney.
    • 80' A bit of a lull in the game as both sides consolidate on the current score - 1-0 isn't a disaster for Stockport.
    • 78' Nasty tackle over the top of the ball by Phillips on Dicker, he's in real pain. That should have been a card at least.
    • 76' Martin booked for a foul on the edge of the box.
    • 74' Great play on the right by Martin fizzed into the near post but Ruddy flies out to claim bravely at the feet of Facey.
    • 72' WYCOMBE SUBS: Doherty and McGleish off for Knight and Phillips.
    • 70' Torres almost creates another opening on the right but McGleish isn’t on quite the same wavelength as the former Boots shelf-stacker.
    • 67' Oakes with a bad tackle on Dickinson that leaves the County striker in a heap clutching the base of his spine, yellow card. They've really given Dickinson a kicking today.
    • 64' Incessant pressure from the Chairboys now as Doherty and Torres combine again but Stockport hack it away.
    • 63' Torres with a superb run on the right but he just over-runs it.
    • 62' Martin controls he ball on the right, good low cross to McGleish who stands it up for Holt WHO SHOOTS FOR THE TOP LEFT but just over!
    • 61' Good ball in by Doherty who gets the one-two back and smartly beats his man to slip it to Torres but his final ball was poor. Long clearance over the top and great strength and guile from Dickinson who muscles to the by-line and slips a perfect ball across the face of goal AND ROWE MUST SCORE BUT HE MISSES THE BALL! Great opportunity, bad miss but to be fair Martin was sliding across to block and put him off.
    • 58' Facey holds the ball up well on the edge of the box but his pass to Oakes is poor, County clear and it's slipped through to Dickinson who sends a great chip past Fielding into the goal but the flag was up, clever defending by Johnson to hold the line under pressure.
    • 57' A rare foray forward for Stockport but they're forced back to halfway and eventually give it away, Doherty threading the ball to Facey who wins a throw on the left.
    • 53' The corner is sent to the penalty spot and Johnson rises with a header but over! Good chance.
    • 52' Brilliant skill by Torres to turn into the box but Ruddy comes out to hack it clear. Oakes now with a good cross but behind for a corner which Martin will take.
    • 49' Doherty with a superb first touch and pass wide, which Facey can't use properly. The ex-Bristol City captain has a touch of Premier League class about him but lacks athleticism, a shame as he could be a really good player.
    • 46' Second half underway!
    • 46' STOCKPORT SUB: Change at the break, Gleeson on for Blizzard.
    • 45+3 Half-time at Adams Park, 1-0 to Wycombe.
    • 44' Three minutes of injury-time to be played....
    • 41' Good play by Facey on the left, he sends a cross over for Torres with the header but it spoons away and Stockport clear.
    • 40' Williamson with a bad tackle on Dickinson, the ref comes over and there's some aggro on the touchline between Gannon and the Wycombe player. Actually it was Doherty coming in late who caught him. There's been some bad blood before between Gannon and Wycombe boss Lambert, who now gets involved.
    • 39' Oakes swings the ball in and it almost drops to McGleish, Stockport scramble it clear though.
    • 38' Owen booked for clattering into McGleish from behind.
    • 36' Ruddy with a poor clearance after a back-pass, it goes to Facey who muscles past the two centre-halves and coolly pokes it past Ruddy while falling to the ground! Great finish and strength but a bad mistake by on-loan Evertonian Ruddy.
    • 33' Dickinson is down with a back injury after clashing with Doherty.
    • 28' Pilkington breaks forward and has time and space and options with Dickinson and Blizzard on either side, but he sees glory and hammers a drive that rises well over.
    • 27' The ref blows for a foul as Wycombe hack the ball away from under the bar.
    • 26' Rose plays a great ball to the far post after great work from Rowe AND PILKINGTON RISES WITH A SUPERB HEADER AND FIELDING TIPS IT OVER! Great football.
    • 24' Martin on the right in for Woodman who swings over a cross that curls towards goal that Ruddy is forced to tip over for a corner.
    • 23' Rose gets back up to surge down the left and win a corner off Martin.
    • 22' Torres very late on Rose, yellow card.
    • 19' Dickinson runs through onto a long ball and Johnson lets it bounce and Dickinson is in and is caught while shooting on goal but the ref decides he fouled Johnson earlier. Don't think there was anything wrong with that.
    • 15' STOCKPORT SUB: McNulty on for Raynes.
    • 14' In a bizarre incident, the ref almost books Raynes because he thinks he has returned to the pitch without his permission. Actually he never left the pitch, having been injured in a challenge with Oakes just by the touchline. The assistant explains this so the ref arranges for him to be taken off.
    • 11' Raynes is injured and needs treatment.
    • 8' Nasty accidental clash of heads between three players and Doherty and Dickinson are down.
    • 7' The corner isn't fully cleared by County and it drops to DOHERTY WITH A DELICATE LOB BUT JUST LANDS ON THE ROOF OF THE NET! Great skill by one of the better ball players in this division.
    • 5' Doherty with a superb shot tipped away by Ruddy after great work by Torres and Facey on the left.
    • 3' Blizzard booked for Stockport after a late tackle.
    • 1' Match underway!
