In a game where for the majority of the play, both teams seemed pretty evenly matched with neither team able to take their chances, it was an 85th minute from Rob Whyte that clinched it for the Linnets. However, the match was marred at the end by two Linnets' dismissals, both of which were for double-yellow offences that the Runcorn faithful found hard to stomach, as was the case with a number of the referee's decisions throughout the match. Paul Crewe sent was off in the 88th minute, and Rob Whyte was sent off in the 90th.
