    Good chance for Macclesfield.

    The ball is cut back to Daniel Elliott but his effort is well blocked by some stingy Slough defending.

    Corner to the Silkmen now.

  2. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:13 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Macclesfield defender Rollin Menayese is booked for a foul on the halfway line.

    One card apiece now.

    Macclesfield are enjoying a good spell in this game.

    Everything changes if there's a goal before half-time.

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Luke Duffy strikes the free-kick and it goes around the wall but is comfortably gathered by Adam Desbois.

    I make that the first shot on target with almost 40 minutes gone.

  5. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:09 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Slough defender Kiki Oshilaja is the first player in the book for a cynical pull back on Macclesfield winger D'Mani Mellor.

    Free-kick to the Silkmen around 20 yards from goal.

    Used to go to the Dolphin Stadium in the 60s when Slough were at home there. We had our wedding reception there. The dog track night saved the day as the band got lost.

    Great to see Slough taking it to Macclesfield. Hopefully they can see out the job and qualify for the next round. Home tie against Arsenal or Manchester United, perhaps?

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    The home side go forward and Wiktor Makowski looks to break but the Pole doesn't have the pace to get away from Macclesfield defender Rollin Menayese, who deals with the situation well, and earns his side a free-kick.

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    A deep centre is aimed towards Macclesfield striker Daniel Elliott but Slough keeper Adam Desbois picks the ball superbly out of the sky.

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Macclesfield try to get the passing going but give the ball away in midfield on this wet 3G surface.

    Slough, despite currently sitting in the relegation places in the National League South, have looked very well organised so far.

  10. Postpublished at 12:54 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Scott Davies hits a free-kick from inside his own box and tries to catch Macclesfield keeper Max Dearnley out but it goes well over the crossbar.

    I think when you're the player-manager, you get away with those ones.

    The home side are looking most likely to score here.

    Macclesfield have had to do a lot of defending but have come up with all the answers so far.

    Absolutely ecstatic that Slough have got here, we have really deserved it! Great to see my local team do well!

    Another dangerous ball from Slough's Tyrese Dyce somehow alludes everyone in the middle and Macclesfield survive again.

  14. Postpublished at 12:50 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Slough's Johnny Goddard has two opportunities to put the ball into the box but gets neither one right and Macclesfield have a goal-kick.

    20 minutes in and the home side have probably shaded the match so far.

  15. Postpublished at 12:46 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Player-manager Scott Davies is over the free-kick but hits it straight into a strong Macclesfield wall.

  16. Postpublished at 12:45 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Macclesfield defender Rollin Menayese dives in and commits a clear foul - rather desperate defending from Menayese.

    Free-kick Slough around 25 yards out, centre of goal. Great position this.

    Opportunities are there for Slough, whether it's a long punt from Desbois or down the wing.

    It's a bit of a mismatch in the box.

  18. CLOSE!published at 12:44 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Great work from Slough right-back Tarik Gidaree sees him twist and turn before putting a lovely cross into the middle but there are no takers at the far post and the ball goes behind for a goal-kick.

    First bit of quality we've seen today from either side.

  19. Postpublished at 12:40 GMT 7 December 2025

    Slough Town 0-0 Macclesfield

    Tyrece Dyce is fouled on the left wing and Slough have a chance to put the ball in the box but it's a poor delivery and Macclesfield clear their lines.

    This is not a nice day for the supporters but they've sold out their allocation.

    It's been a bit scrappy due to the weather already.
