Chesterfield 3-3 West Brom: Brandon Thomas-Asante hits stoppage time equaliser to take National League side to replay after Armando Dobra's brace looked to have ...

Some of their fans delighted in it a little too much, invading the pitch and goading the home support. But the National League club were never likely to roll over. They were back on level terms just five minutes later. But there was nothing in the way of sustained pressure and Chesterfield still enjoyed their moments, with sub Kabongo Tshimanga seeing a shot deflected into the side-netting. They took the game to West Brom and forced a succession of corners which piled on the pressure. Chesterfield are no pub league cloggers - they’re a high-flying National League outfit with ambitions to get back into League Two at the end of the season - but to push Championship West Brom so close was a mighty fine achievement.

Brandon Thomas-Asante ensured that West Bromwich Albion averted danger with a last gasp equaliser at non-league Chesterfield in a corker of an FA Cup tie.

He stung the palms of Fitzsimons and flicked a header over from a Wallace cross. Summed up Albion's day when passing straight out of play at the end. Not on the same wavelength when it came to the defensive line, and Ajayi was otherwise erratic with his passing and clearing. Cool under pressure when on the ball otherwise, although positioning for goals was poor and a lack of obvious chemistry with Ajayi in a makeshift defence made things awkward. Very hesitant on the right, never looked like imposing himself on the game, and any potential threat Diangana did carry was snuffed out by the revved up Clements. By no means is TGH's favourite position at right-back, but he was given the runaround by Dobra in the first half and too often Chesterfield found joy down that side. Under pressure at left-back as Chesterfield looked to play up to the crackling cup atmosphere. Poor showing from Rogic, who has blown hot and cold in an Albion shirt up to now. Albion never looked all too comfortable, but despite that they edged back in front again just after a quarter of an hour when Adam Reach slipped Grant in with a delightful through ball and last season's top scorer did the rest. Nervy in the second half when miscontrolling the ball. Albion plodded through the game, even after Corberan made changes and introduced first-choice personnel. Brandon Thomas-Asante ensured that West Bromwich Albion averted danger with a last gasp equaliser at non-league Chesterfield in a corker of an FA Cup tie.

The oldest cup competition in the world, the FA Cup is always a tournament that every club up and down the country want to win. Arsenal are record winners ...

West Brom sent on their first-team regulars to lift the tempo in an attempt to turn things around. Conceding at such a stage can add an extra thrilling chapter to the giantkilling story, or at least that was the hope for the home fans. The tiredness was gone and the upset was on. The goalkeeper palmed the shot straight to Dobra, who whacked the bouncing ball into a top corner to instigate bedlam. Armando Dobra twice scored as he looked to write his own chapter in the club’s FA Cup history – their most famous moments came in their run to the semi-finals in 1997. “If you said before the game you had a game like that for supporters, they would snap your hand off for entertainment value.
