I'm not suggesting this game will be called off but - good luck finding a gap in the schedule for a replay...

The rain appears to be getting worse if anything. Plenty of forking going on at half-time.

Stockport need to be a little bit more aggressive, just bully West Ham a little bit because they have the players to do it. West Ham are here to play football, they are here to pass the ball around and look nice and neat.

Stockport should make this a physical game. A game that West Ham don't want to be involved in. It's still chucking it down with rain, just make it horrible for them.

Unfortunately, the fireworks were the most exciting thing about the first half!

Andrew Dickinson: Is it possible for the broadcasters to show us a replay of the fireworks rather than first half highlights?

Again, no replays so if we don't get any goals we'll have extra-time and penalties.

I'm looking at the battle that is starting to erupt between Yarmolenko and Kitching. A couple of little nibbles off the ball from both players and Yarmolenko is starting to get a little bit more frustrated than Kitching is - and the referee has just spotted it. I'm going to keep an eye on this...

Well played, Stockport County.

As we tick into added time Stockport win a corner. Which is disappointingly whipped into the side-netting.

That was more a shot out of frustration than anything else from Declan Rice.

All day, all day Declan...

Stockport seem happy enough to let Rice shoot from 25 yards and he belts one into the stand, high and wide.

The incessant Greater-Manchester rain is taking effect now, a portion of the pitch is cutting up midway between the penalty area and the halfway line in the half West Ham are attacking.

Another curler from the edge of the box, from Michail Antonio this time, but again it's just wide of the far post. Via a deflection this time and from the corner Angelo Ogbonna heads wide.

Stockport look a really well organised unit - and fair play to them. They are sticking to the task at hand, they are building from the back and trying to get a few players forward when they get the opportunity, plus they are very, very difficult to break down.

That's the ball! Manuel Lanzini plays early and incisively, through a gap and Michail Antonio looks to be in on goal. Before he can sort his feet though Mark Kitching gets across to make a brilliant challenge.

Tonyonduli: County have beaten West Ham before at Edgeley Park, so why not tonight. There’ll be more of those fireworks when they do!

Said Benrahma nearly gives West Ham the opener as his low shot clips the bottom of Ben Hinchcliffe's left post.

It's the closest we have come to a goal so far.

Stockport need to get the ball out wide as quickly as they can. Jordan Williams is causing a couple of problems for Vladimir Coufal on this left-hand side.

There is a save though, Manuel Lanzini finding space to drill in a shot from the edge of the area but it's straight at Ben Hinchcliffe in the Hatters net.
