Key Events
Headed over
Glorious chance for McClure there as he heads a Taylor cross over from 10 yards when well placed.
Somehow!
Chapell hits the bar witt h a chipped effort, Shots fail to clear and ball worked back to Chapell who slides ball across to James to slam into empty net at far post. Crazy!
Blocked
Kingsley James and Mahon do well to keep possession on left and James rasps an effort that’s blocked and nodded back to Cole.
Cleared
Mitchell turns a Taylor cross wide for a corner. Blues manage to clear lines after some heavy pressure.
Great cross
Dawson whips in superb ball that just evades head of McCombe. Only needed the slightest of touches.
Chester attacking
It’s taken 50 minutes but the Blues making a fist of it after goal. More attacking intent than in whole of first half.
HT: Aldershot Town 1 Chester 0
If Chester are to get anything from this game then they need to show something in the second half. Rescued by the woodwork on three occasions before the goal the Blues have been well off the pace. Could have been three or four in truth.
Cleared, eventually
Corner found Alexander on edge of area but his effort was blocked and Chester regroup to win goal kick.
GOAL! Aldershot 1 Chester 0
It’s been coming. Matt McClure latches on to Kellerman pass to slam home from close range. Awful from Chester
Woodwork AGAIN!
James Rowe receives Taylor cross and smashes effort off underside of bar. Almost went over line. Chester let off again.
Second best
Chester very much second best here at the moment. Taylor twists and turns in Blues area but can’t find anyone with byline cross. Chester hardly getting past halfway line.
