Match Review: Burton Albion 1-5 Chesterfield

New signing Wade Small hit 2 goals in as Chesterfield continued their fine start to the season with a 5-1 thrashing of Burton at the Pirelli Stadium. In the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy 1st round their were alot of wins but none as big as this.

Chesterfield’s small away support cheered the boy’s on from the first whistle to the last, a significant 90 minutes as Chesterfield will play the brewers very soon in League 2.

Wade Small scored the first goal after he picked the ball up from a flick by Drew Talbot and firing it home from 15 yards, shortler after the assister became the goalscorer as Talbot scored from the same distance. Burton’s John McGrath made it 2-1 before Small hit another shot past Burton keeper Artur Krysiak. Jamie Lowry scored from close range and with the last kick of the game Drew Talbot made it a comfortable 5-1 win for John Sheridan’s spireites.

John Sheridan said after the game:

“Our attacking play was outstanding. To be honest we could have scored more”

“I wish it was a league game, I would rather have three points. It’s a good habit winning matches, we’re unbeaten in five games now”.

“I knew our pace would cause them problems.”

Chesterfield face Rotherham at the Don Valley Stadium on Saturday were they lost 3-0 last season.
