Walsall welcomed the Spireites to the Poundland Bescot Stadium for the second leg of their League Two Play-Off Semi-Final, with the Saddlers taking a two-goal advantage into the match.
Walsall grabbed the opening goal of the game with under ten minutes of normal time remaining, as substitutes Charlie Lakin and Albert Adomah combined for the former to put the ball into the back of the net.
Chesterfield kept pushing and levelled the scores deep into second-half stoppage time as Armando Dobra grabbed a consolation.
However, the goal scoring didn't end there as Levi Amantchi, assisted by Albert Adomah, put the team back ahead to cap off a superb two-legged affair.
