Carlisle are pressing.
Can they create one last chance?
Post update
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
Stockport goalkeeper Ben Hinchliffe is off his line well to grab a floated corner.
He's had a fine game once more today.

Fantastic save from Ben Hinchcliffe in the Stockport goal.
One of the best I've seen this season.
To pull off a save like that at this point in the game is incredible.
SUBSTITUTION
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
Antoni Sarcevic is off and Connor Lemonheigh-Evans is on.
Sarcevic took a penalty in the Hatters' semi-final win over Salford but he just had nothing left to give here.
'Switching-off in tired moments'
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
Liam Hogan
former Stockport defender on BBC Radio Manchester
That’s what I mean about switching-off in those tired moments.
He directs the header towards goal and Ben Hinchliffe does unbelievably well.
GREAT SAVE!
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
SENSATIONAL STOP!
Owen Moxon drills the corner to the near post where Krystian Dennis makes great connection with his glanced header.
Stockport keeper Ben Hinchliffe launches himself across his goal and claws it out.

Carlisle win a corner in front of their fans.
They roar them on.
'That’s the benefit of being 6ft 9!'

Liam Hogan
former Stockport defender on BBC Radio Manchester
That’s the benefit of being 6ft 9in!
Tomas Holy's made two vital saves.
That’s heading for the top corner and he’s used every inch of himself to stop that.

I can not imagine how tired those players must be on this baking hot day at the end of an incredibly long season.
I'm shattered and I've spent the whole day sat down.
GREAT SAVE!
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
Tomas Holy has not had much to do in the Carlisle goal today.
That's a fine save to keep out Jack Stretton's 20-yarder though.

Deary me.
I can't get my head around it.
15 minutes of football left and possibly penalties to decide promotion to League One.
It's borderline barbaric.
SECOND HALF EXTRA TIME
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
We're back under way.
Time for someone to be a hero yet.
HALF-TIME IN EXTRA TIME
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
Quick break and then this League Two season will have 15 final minutes.
YELLOW CARD
Carlisle 1-1 Stockport
Stockport midfielder Will Collar is in the book for kicking the ball away.
I know it's hot down there but come on. What a way to get booked in extra time.
