Chesterfield 1-2 Mansfield

A stoppage-time winner from Liam Lawrence gave Mansfield a crucial victory in a dramatic local derby that saw Chesterfield's former Stags striker Shayne Bradley sent off.

Bradley had only been on the field three minutes when he was shown the red card by substitute referee Paul Robinson in the 70th minute.

Robinson had replaced Andy Hall after 20 minutes and he dismissed Bradley for an off-the-ball incident that was spotted by a linesman.

Bradley's departure threatened to mar what had been a passionate and open game in which Chesterfield had taken a 38th-minute lead through Marcus Ebdon's penalty after Matthew Gadsby had needlessly handled.

Craig Disley volleyed the equaliser two minutes before the break and both sides had chances before Mansfield snatched it in the fifth minute of injury time.

Jamie Clarke lifted in a free-kick and Gadsby headed across goal for Lawrence to place a downward header past Spireites goalkeeper Ben Williams.
