Get the latest from the game.
FULL TIME: MK Dons 1-1 Notts County
Great advert for League Two football in the second-half. Both sides scoring, both sides with great chances, both sides will feel they could have won it.
Really entertaining, but it’s ended all square.
96 mins: OH WHAT A MISS
Unbelievable! What a chance for Harrison. Great cross from Gilbey and Harrison just has to poke it in but he’s put it over!
95 mins: WHAT A SAVE
HUGE save from MacGillivray to deny Langstaff from close range! Vital!
93 mins: Palmer bends it wide
A lot of fuss over that free-kick, Palmer hits it left-footed around the wall but it’s aimlessly wide
91 mins: Dangerous free-kick
Smith into the book for a foul on Baldwin right on the edge of the box.
Langstaff looks set to take it
Stoppage time
Seven minutes to be added on here!
85 mins: Baldwin forces a save
Didn’t get to see a lot of Aden Baldwin at MK Dons, but in County colours he’s just struck a cracking effort on goal, swerving through the air, but MacGillivray gathers to his chest
82 mins: Payne comes close
Great drop of the shoulder from the Charlton loanee to send Baldwin to KFC, but his strike just skids wide
78 mins: Eisa time
Max Dean, who has been excellent in this second-half, is replaced by Mo Eisa
70 mins: Drinks
Another drinks break for the players in this heat, and the opportunity to get some instructions on board from Graham Alexander for the final 20 minutes.
66 mins: Dons make their changes
Harrison replaces Leko
Payne on for Devoy
Harvie replaced by Tomlinson
It’s backs to the wall at the moment for Dons
65 mins: GOAL! County are level
Dons just could not get the ball away, deflections and half-clearances everywhere. It falls really nicely to Kyle Cameron after Gilbey’s scuffed clearance, and he bends it into the bottom corner to equalise.
62 mins: The volume is cranked up
This game is now really bubbling, with both sets of supporters making their voices heard.
A triple change being lined up for Dons here with Payne, Tomlinson and Harrison all ready for their home debuts.
60 mins: Gilbey with a fierce strike
A cracking effort from the Dons skipper, long way out and has the keeper at full stretch but it’s just wide
58 mins: Double change
Nice applause for Adam Chicksen as he comes off for the visitors as County make a double change.
Chicksen is replaced by Tobi Adebayo-Rowling, while Connell Rawlinson is off for Aden Baldwin, also formerly of this parish
54 mins: All about Dean
What an attack from Max Dean. His flick over the defender’s head allows him to race into the box, and with Leko in support, opts to fire in alone and forces Stone into a save. But the defence dwell on it, Dean nicks it, slips it to Robson but his effort is deflected behind.
In the picture: The goal-scorer
Daniel Harvie celebrates his third goal of the season
46 mins: GOAL! Harvie opens the scoring
Slow starts to the second half?! Naaaah!
Harvie is unleashed by Tommy Smith up the left flank, and Notts County keep backing off and backing off, he gets into the penalty area and it opens up in front of him, and he rifles his third goal of the season into the roof of the net!
1-0!
Second-half
Notts County restart the game.
No changes for either side at the break
HALF TIME: MK Dons 0-0 Notts County
Not much in the way of chances in that opening 45 minutes. Langstaff should really have given the visitors the lead right at the end of the half, but Robson and Leko have had decent sights of goal too.
It certainly hasn’t been the swashbuckling game we were expecting, but this heat is not helping either side.
