The referee whistles for half-time and we remain goalless at the Peninsula Stadium.

The Ammies have been on top without creating a lot in front of goal. Kylian Kouassi has gone closest but his left-footed strike across goal was superbly tipped around the post by Gabriel Breeze.

United's best chance via former Ammies' forward Luke Armstrong but about 12 yards out he could only balloon his shot over the crossbar

If at first you don't succeed, try again as Tomas Kalinauskas proves after his strike off the post is followed up by a tap into the net to give Burton the lead at half time.

As it stands, Salop sit at the bottom and Burton will have the win they've been waiting all season for soon - just as interim boss Tom Hounsell predicted. Will his prophecy come true today or can Shrewsbury upset the state of play?

It's half-time in Yorkshire and it's the visitors that lead at the break.

The Shrimps grew into the match and it was central deender Rhys Williams who rose highest to head home a pinpoint Ben Tolitt corner past Town goalkeeper James Belshaw.

Town are likely to lie down however and with Jack Muldoon on the field they have a finisher who can turn a game around in an instance.

Four additional minutes at Stok Cae Ras after that stoppage for Christy Pym to go off earlier...

Back to front at haste for Wrexham as Paul Mullin latches onto a long diagonal, works a yard of space under pressure from Baily Cargill and then bends a banana effort from just outside the box a yard past the post.

If he'd been a few yards further out that might just have curled enough to come back on target.

Scott Flinders is the happiest man of all.

Keanu Baccus has had his name taken by ref Simon Mather, looks like it's for dissent.

Midfielder Ossama Ashley gets forward and his bobbling shot is not dealt with by Carlisle goalkeeper Gabriel Breeze who palms it out into a dangerous area but Salford striker Kylian Kouassi's effort is blocked by some superb last-ditch defending from United.

Carlisle almost the authors of their own downfall again there.

A little bit reckless from Burton's Charlie Webster, who is already on a yellow and puts in a tackle on Leo Castledine to concede a free kick just outside the box.

The set piece goes no where though so no harm done.

Mansfield look really comfortable now.

They're playing their own stuff and look confident on the ball, Wrexham can't cope at the minute.

I think they have been the better team overall.

Mix-up at the back for Wrexham now as Arthur Okonkwo flies off his line to come and deal with an inswinging Aaron Lewis cross, only for James McClean to steal in and head over his own crossbar from 12 yards out.

The corner comes to nought for the visitors, though Paul Mullin gets clattered by Frazer Blake-Tracy at the edge of his own box, with the Stags man fortunate to escape a booking, in truth.

Shrewsbury's John Marquis is front and centre to get his first taste at goal but he's having to bend over backwards to try and get a head on the ball as it comes in from behind.

He makes the connection happen but it's not a good one as the ball goes whizzing above the net.

Finally, an on-target shot arrives for the visitors!

Salop's Leo Castledine gets his head onto the end of a whipped pass into the box but isn't able to generate any power and it's comfortably sent into the warm gloves of the Burton keeper.

Bit of pressure from the visitors who remember are bottom of the football league currently.

Ben Tolitt creates room for himself but he can't keep his shot on target.

First action for Stags keeper Scott Flinders and it nearly gave Wrexham a second.

The keeper lost his balance as he tried to hack clear and smashed the ball into the back of a Wrexham forward, the ball bouncing across the face of the unguarded goal before the Stags defence were able to clear.

Not conducive to a relaxed backline, that...

Shrewsbury are awarded a soft free kick, much to the dismay of the penalised Tomas Kalinauskas.

The delivery is looped into the box but home hearts are settled when the whistle is blown for offside and the attack is quelled.

Arthur Okonkwo to the rescue for Wrexham again as Will Evans gives Tom O'Connor a torrid time trying to get on the end of a bouncing ball in the area, eventually winning the battle and firing in a low shot which Okonkwo smothers with his legs as O'Connor hit the deck.

That could have been a goal, a penalty, as it is it's a very handy save indeed.

The possession stats are creeping higher and higher into Burton's favour as they look to keep control of the game.

Salop are desperate to get themselves into it as forward Leo Castledine buzzes around Burton's Terence Vancooten on the ball and accidentally clips the defender in the process.

38-year-old reserve keeper Scott Flinders is on. He's only made 11 appearances, all in cups, for Mansfield over the past couple of seasons. Christy Pym was an ever present in the league last season.

A big blow for Mansfield and Nigel Clough.

Aaron Lewis whips in another set-piece from deep for Mansfield but Lee Gregory's diving angled header, under pressure from George Dobson, squirts a yard past the upright.

We have a stoppage as Stags keeper Christy Pym is down for treatment at the other end. He looks in some discomfort. Nobody near him.

Scott Flinders the reserve keeper is getting ready....

Second penalty appeal for Salford but again nothing doing for the referee.

Francis Okoronkwo's effort, which seems to be going well wide, strikes the hand of Tyrell Thomas in the box but the defender was stood far too close for that to be given.

It would have been very harsh!
