Olakigbe started and played 79 minutes at Wham Stadium before being replaced by Michael Jacobs
with the 21-year-old winger being involved in the only goal of the game with just over half an hour played
He regained possession in the middle of the park before Chesterfield worked the ball to Ryan Colclough
who hit the post when it looked easier to score
before Will Grigg finished off the rebound
Paul Cook's side - who survived a late scare when Accrington hit the woodwork twice inside the space of a few seconds - will now host Walsall on Sunday afternoon (3.30 kick-off BST) before travelling to Poundland Bescot Stadium for the second leg on the following Friday evening (8pm kick-off BST)
Notts County and AFC Wimbledon complete the League Two play-off places
đ„ Highlights of the Spireites' 1-0 away win at Accrington Stanley are now available to watch, with an extended version over on our YouTube channel âŹïž#Spireites
Elsewhere in the fourth tier, Ashley Hay played an hour of Cheltenham Town's 3-0 defeat at Bromley.
The striker's loan spell with the Robins has seen him make 23 appearances across the league and EFL Trophy, scoring three goals and assisting a further one.
In the Championship, Jayden Meghoma was an unused substitute for Preston North End, who sacrificed a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 against Bristol City at Ashton Gate.
That point was enough for the Lilywhites to avoid relegation - as well as for their hosts to secure the final play-off place - with Luton Town and Plymouth Argyle joining Cardiff City in being demoted to the third tier.
Myles Peart-Harris missed Swansea City's entertaining 3-3 draw against Oxford United through injury.
Exeter City closed their League One campaign with a 3-0 loss at Mansfield Town. Tony Yogane was introduced from the bench just before the hour mark when the Grecians were already trailing by two goals, while Ryan Trevitt missed the game through injury.
Mads Roerslev made his first Wolfsburg appearance since March as he was brought on for the last 14 minutes of their 4-0 defeat at Borussia Dortmund while elsewhere in the Bundesliga, Frank Onyeka started Augsburg's 3-1 home loss against Holstein Kiel.
North of the border, Ellery Balcombe was on the bench for Motherwell, who secured their Scottish Premiership status for next season with a come-from-behind 2-1 away win against Dundee.
Finally, Ben Winterbottom made his final appearance for AFC Fylde in their 3-0 home loss against National League winners Barnet on Monday afternoon.
The Spireites were ninth at the start of the day and were relying on Salford and Grimsby not winning and for themselves to get at least a point at the Wham Stadium
It worked out perfectly for them to secure seventh spot but it was almost snatched out of their hands in added time as Stanley hit the woodwork twice
Paul Cook's side forced the pace and the only goal came after 32 minutes when Jenson Metcalfe's strike was pushed out by Michael Kelly but only to Ryan Colclough who hit the post and Grigg was there to fire into the empty net
denied by the foot of Kelly at the start of the second half
and the Spireites pressed with Colclough and Tom Naylor firing over
Dylan Duffy rattled the crossbar for Chesterfield after 87 minutes but Stanley still pressed and Josh Woods and Anjola Popoola both hit the woodwork for Stanley in the fourth minute of added time
Chesterfield held on in dramatic fashion and will now face Walsall in the play-offs

Thanks to funding secured through to March 2026
the VCH will continue to operate from its home at Vicar Lane
ensuring ongoing support and services for the community
Since opening for a trial period from October 2024 until December 2024
the VCH proved to be very popular and was embraced by the Veteran community
Since opening the doors over 500 veterans and their family members have accessed the site
The visits have ranged from just wanting a cuppa and a chat to referrals into more specialised treatments such as alcohol addiction
Support has also been provided including pension enquiries
Veterans face an array of challenges from deployment to resettlement; the risk of injury
being away from loved ones and upon returning from serving
Although thousands of veterans need assistance with the issues they may face
then they should call in at the Veteran Community Hub
Stand To Derbyshire Veteran Community Services said
âItâs fantastic that we have this opportunity to be in the town centre of Chesterfield and we are thrilled to be able to continue to help veterans.â
âWe are delighted that we have been able to assist Stand To in having a high street location for the Stand To Veterans Hub here at Vicar Lane Shopping Centre
This is something I am passionate about not only as a veteran but also as a member of the Board of Trustees for DAAS and Stand To
We hope that our local veterans will continue to come and visit; whether for a chat or specific support.â

Nothing beats spending time in the sunshine with loved ones
I cherish summer because it brings more opportunities for quality time together and the warmer weather certainly helps
weâre asking local people to share their ideas for an ideal weekend in Chesterfield
that many ideas came to mind that I mapped out a whole summer of weekends for our readers to enjoy
I recommend kicking off the season at the Rail Ale Festival
where Chesterfieldâs rich heritage meets fantastic food & drink
The festival buzzes with energyâold locomotives as a backdrop
For those drawn to colour and celebration, Chesterfield Pride delivers
this event still brings an unmatched vibrancy
A stroll through Hardwick Hallâs gardens proved a wonderfully wholesome day out with my little one recently. This summer, take a picnic and settle in for Shakespeareâs A Midsummer Nightâs Dream or the hilarious The Most Perilous Comedie of Elizabeth I
Watching live performances as the sun sets over the stately home
For cricket lovers, the BRM Festival of Cricket at Queenâs Park stands out
Weâve attended the last two years and have already got tickets for Derbyshire vs
and the ball being smashed for six creates a highly entertaining afternoon
but our record against Yorkshire here in Chesterfield has been pretty good lately
Queenâs Park also hosts the Chesterfield Childrenâs Festival – an event I proudly support as a Junction Arts trustee
the dedicated team crafts an inspiring space filled with hands-on workshops and live performances
and create memories around the bandstand is such a joyful sight for any parent
and ThinkFest marks its fifth year of encouraging open conversations about mental health
Make a day of itâenjoy performances under the big screen
then stop by your favourite café for cake and a drink
With so much happening, letâs make the most of Chesterfieldâs summerâit always flies by too fast! Find out more at: https://www.chesterfield.co.uk/summer
