Jenson Metcalfe scored his first senior goal on Easter Monday as Chesterfield rescued a point at home to Bradford City in League Two.

The young midfielder swept home a superb finish from the edge of the box with the ball clipping in off the post right on the stroke of half-time to bring the score to 2-1, with a late equaliser securing a 3-3 draw for the Spireites and keeping them just three points outside the League Two play-offs.

Chesterfield had been held to a goalless draw away at AFC Wimbledon on Good Friday, with Metcalfe playing the full 90 minutes in both games.

Harrison Armstrong continues to impress on loan at Derby County, making starts in two very different results over Easter weekend.

The midfielder could not prevent the Rams falling to a 1-0 defeat to relegation rivals Luton Town on Friday but a much-improved team performance saw Derby pick up a vital 3-1 win over West Bromwich Albion on Monday.

Harrison played 90 minutes in each game as Derby remain in 21st place, just outside the Championship’s bottom three on goal difference.

That Easter Monday clash saw Armstrong come up against Mason Holgate, who played 63 minutes in his first appearance since 8 April but could not prevent the Rams from taking victory.

That result, a fifth defeat in six, saw the Baggies drop to 10th in the Championship table.

It was a mixed weekend for Harry Tyrer at Blackpool in League One. The Seasiders started the Easter weekend with a fine 3-1 win away at Stevenage, but despite a late rally, Blackpool were defeated 2-1 on Monday by promotion-chasing Wrexham at Bloomfield Road.

Tyrer played the full 90 minutes in both games, taking him to 39 appearances this season in all competitions for Blackpool.

Bradley Moonan played the full 90 minutes for Prescot Cables as they secured a top-half finish in the Northern Premier League Premier Division with a 3-0 win over 10-man FC United.
