What a moment from Charlie Williams that was! His 25 yard free-kick was bent around and over Ben Goode and the defensive wall to beat the keeper to his left.

The Bucks try to force a winner late in the game, Goode makes a catch and Brown the Generals captain is down with cramp.

The Bucks defend a corner and as Fletcher tries to launch a counterattack, Callum Adebiyi hauls him down and is booked.

'

Both teams are searching for a winner here, but neither is able to carve out a clear chance, at least not yet...

'

Armson heads wide! Dinanga's deflected cross sat up almost perfectly for Jimmy and he arched his back and neck and directed his effort wide of Goode's right hand but also the goal.

'

Goode saves from Dinanga as he moves onto a ball played in from the right.

'

This game is still in the balance, Chesham are pushing that little bit harder for the victory but the Bucks are dealing with it.

'

Grieves saves well from Minhas as the Generals thread a ball through the middle and Xander sees the threat emerging and is off his line to make the block.

'

Chesham exert a bit of pressure and claims for handball in the box are ignored.

ON: Matt McClure, Zak Joseph, Josh Addae. OFF: Weiss, Bennetts, Roberts.

'

Piggott does well to halt Jayden Bennetts as the Generals look to spring a quick break. The home side eventuially forces a corner on the left, Cawthorne heads it clear.

'

Super anticipation from Grieves to dash off his line and thwart Minhas at the forward's feet after the ball rebounded towards danger.

'

The Bucks spring a quick attack, Stenson's ball across the box for Lawal is too far in front of Ola, he retrieves and the Bucks earn a corner but can't turn it into a goal threat.

'

Cawthorne makes a solid contact and heads wide to Goode's right-hand side from the corner.

'

Stenson fouled, the Bucks have an attacking free-kick, wide on the right. Walker takes it and the Generals head the ball out for a corner on the left.

'

Lawal is fouled by Brown. The Bucks take their free-kick, in the Generals' half, and Stenson sends a cross over that Goode claims under his crossbar.

Cawthorne is yellow-carded for a second foul in a couple of minutes in a similar position, and from the free-kick, there's a missed punch from Grieves that leads to a scramble, the Bucks eventually clear.

'

Chesham half-heartedly appeals for a penalty after Dyer is beaten on their left, the Bucks right - nothing given. The game has opened up here, play rapidly going from end to end.

'

Stenson miscues as he's played through against Goode on the left of the box, an air shot that brings ironic cheers from the home crowd.

'

Cawthorne's foul, 30 yards out and wide on the right, brings a dangerous free-kick that Grieves grabs to safety after the first contact.

'

The Bucks are almost presented a scoring chance as Brown plays a loose clearance towards Dyer and his low cross, aimed for Stenson, is cut out in the nick of time.

'
We're back in progress, with no substitutions made by either side at the break.

Level at the break. Scuffles in the players' tunnel as the teams head for the dressing rooms.

Stenson receives the ball in the box but his backheel can't play in Walker. The Generals take the ball to the other end and win a corner.

'

Walker makes a challenge on Mitchell Weiss, Generals' captain Steve Brown then barges into Walker, there's a bit of edge surfacing in this tie.

'

We'll play a minimum of four additional minutes.

Lawal beats his man on the left but goes to ground as he reaches the box. He springs back up again quickly but there are some afters with Connor Roberts, he goes down clutching his head. Lawal is booked for a couple of barges on Roberts.

'

A Generals yellow card.

Giorgio Rasulo is booked, we think for dissent, after a tug on Fletcher's shirt gives the Bucks a chance to alleviate a bit of pressure on the edge of their box.

'

Stenson battles for the corner at the near post, but nothong comes of it amidst a mass of bodies.

'

The Bucks are awarded a free-kick for a foul on Lawal, one that's contested. Goode gets something on it to clear to the right. Dyer takes a quick throw and a cross is tipped over by Goode for a corner.

'

Lawal is offside from a Walker pass down the left flank. This game has evened out, not just on the scoresheet but in terms of possession.

'

Minhas races through but a very late offside call stops him in his tracks. Grieves headed clear, seeing the danger.

'

The goal has given the hosts the impetus and Minhas has a shot blocked at the end of a patient move.

'
The Generals level.

The Generals level.

The Bucks are undone, a quick diagonal ball to the left after what they felt was a foul on Fletcher. Dyer can't cut the ball out and the home side pick out Nathan Minhas in the middle to easily beat an exposed Grieves from a few yards out.

'

The Bucks deal with a quick counterattack after the Generals turn possession over. Piggott eventually heads clear and Lawal collects and runs the ball clear.

'

The Generals have a free-kick, wide on the right, after a foul on Roberts, but Xander Grieves makes a good take and the danger soon passes.

'

An attacking Bucks' free-kick from the left coming, just over 25 yards out. Walker is the decoy, Cranston delivers, it's headed powerfully clear.

'

The Bucks had another opportunity soon after the goal but Goode claimed Walker's cross ahead of Stenson. A decent start from the away side.

'

Matty Stenson takes advantage of defensive confusion at the back for the Generals, and slides the ball wide of Ben Goode from just inside the box, on the left, finding the far corner.

'
Stenson again, ole, ole!

Stenson again, ole, ole!

Stenson again, ole, ole!
'

Remi Walker wins a corner on the right, the first of the game.

'

It's a 4-3-3 formation for the Bucks, as we've become accustomed to, with Ola Lawal on the left and Jamie Meddows on the right of the returning Matty Stenson.

'

We're in progress...
