    Stockport 1-0 Salford (agg 1-1)

    Not for the first - nor sixth time for that matter - Ryan Rydel causes Salford's defence trouble with a lovely cross from the left.

    This time it skips across the box and forced Alex Cairns to push it wide.

    The hosts have a corner, but fail to trouble the visitors.

    Salford's Luke Bolton looks like he still has plenty of energy after 93 minutes.

    He stays onside to bring a long ball over the top down on the edge of the area.

    He keeps hold of it and tests Ben Hinchliffe with a low shot

    Stockport deserved to get level but they've not put Alex Cairns' goal under too much stress.

    It's been waves and waves of pressure from Stockport County but there's not been enough quality.

    We need to remember, though, that Salford had two great chances at the start of the second half.

    Stockport 1-0 Salford (agg 1-1)

    Theo Vassell needs medical treatment after being caught by a high foot from Myles Hippolyte. The Stockport man can have no complaint about the yellow card he is shown.

    Vassell will carry on with a heavy bandaged head.

    We are into the last 90 seconds.

    It's a hot day up in Stockport, and it looks like there is an another 30 energy-sapping minutes to come...

    The fourth official holds up the board to indicate that there are six minutes of injury time to come.

    That's plenty to decide this game and tie.

    Stephen O'Halloran
    Ex-Salford and Stockport defender on BBC Radio Manchester

    Superb from Luke Bolton there. The Salford defenders were probably thinking just go for the corner but he kept going and going and going and almost won it.

    A let off for Stockport in the last few minutes.

  12. Postpublished at 90 mins

    Stockport 1-0 Salford (agg 1-1)

    Luke Bolton make an incredible run from inside his own half and ends up seeing an effort cleared off the line by Antoni Sarcevic.

    Bolton skipped past a few challenges on the way into the box, then squeezed a shot past Ben Hinchliffe before the backtracking Sarcevic cleared.

    An utterly amazing moment.

    Stockport 1-0 Salford (agg 1-1)

    Myles Hippolyte lands a long throw inside the area, and after Salford fail to properly clear Paddy Madden tries to flick home an audacious winner.

    His effort ends up dropping just over the bar. That would have been special.

    No-one will admit it but I think Salford would settle for penalties now.

    I think Stockport would settle to try to win it in extra time. I feel the crowd thinks they might not win it in four minutes, but they might in 34.

    Stockport 1-0 Salford (agg 1-1)

    Ryan Rydel goes for goal, but it's blocked for a corner.

    Salford then hold steady when the ball is whipped in from the right.

    There is just five minutes to go.

    Stockport 1-0 Salford (agg 1-1)

    Elliot Watt throws himself into a challenge on Antoni Sarcevic.

    While he appears to get plenty on the ball, the whistle goes for a free-kick. Watt screams in frustration.

    Salford now have a dangerous set-piece to defend.

    And into the final 10 minutes we go.

    Myles Hippolyte appeals for a penalty as Adrian Mariappa gets a hand full of the Stockport man's shirt on the edge of the area.

    The referee ignores the appeals.

    I sense a bit of a truce in the stadium. No one wants to make a mistake in the last 10 minutes.

    I think Salford fancy going all the way and winning this in extra time.

    Stockport have been well on top since taking the lead.

    They are pushing to get tie dealt with in normal time. A deep corner from the right is eventually dealt with by Salford.

  20. YELLOW CARDpublished at 67 mins
