Sam Page v Chelsea

MK Dons carried on their good run of form by fighting out a 0-0 draw at home to Chelsea on Saturday morning.
In an entertaining encounter, both sides had their moments with a draw probably a fair representation of the flow of the game.
Rob Webb was called upon to make a good save on two minutes, and at the other end Jamie England sent a rising shot high and wide from a good position.
A good move on 15 minutes saw Adam Moriarty, Dean Lovegrove and Joe Howe all involved as Lovegrove was presented with a chance to shoot, the effort dragged wide of the target.
Sam Baldock had a shot blocked on 26 minutes, Lovegrove putting the rebound over as the home side began to dominate.
But on 30 minutes the visitors had a good chance, Webb again showing his worth with a brave save at the feet of the Chelsea striker.
The second half saw the Dons start brightly, camping themselves in the opposition half early on without managing to take advantage. And at the back they were largely untroubled as the central defensive partnership of Kieron Murphy and Sam Page, pictured top, looked strong.
As the game wore on it became stretched, with plenty of attacking opportunity for both sides. Chelsea went closest as they hit the crossbar on 79 minutes, and on 82 minutes Webb made another good stop to keep the scores level.
And with five minutes left Jamie England, pictured bottom, and Sam Baldock combined, the Dons striker just closed down as he was about to shoot at goal.
Team: Webb, Kent, Murphy, Page, Collins, Howe, Moriarty, Morley, England, Lovegrove (Battams 85), Baldock. Not used: Day.
