  1. Cambridge United 1-1 Northampton

    We are into three minutes of time added on.

  2. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 4-1 Shrewsbury

    Vadaine Oliver (87 mins)

    The scoring wasn't over...

    Jordan Shipley is sent down the left wing and stands up a glorious cross to the back post for big sub Vadaine Oliver to nod home from a yard or two out.

    Comeback on?

    No...

  3. goal

    GOAL: Walsall 1-1 AFC Wimbledon

    Taylor Allen (87 mins)

    The hosts have equalised!!!!

    Walsall substitute George Hall, returning to action following a four month injury layoff, is brought down by AFC Wimbledon's Jake Reeves.

    Taylor Allen steps up and whips a superb free-kick with his trusty left-foot into the bottom corner past Owen Goodman to restore parity.

    You can feel the relief around The Bescot Stadium, Walsall look to have saved themselves late on.

  4. 'You got the feeling he was going to get another'

    Birmingham 4-0 Shrewsbury

    Matt Mitchell
    BBC Radio WM summariser

    As soon as he got the first one you got the feeling Alfie May was going to get another.

    When his confidence is high, you know he is going to score.

    A few weeks ago he wouldn't of scored that.

  5. SUBSTITUTION

    Cambridge United 1-1 Northampton

    Northampton boss Kevin Nolan goes to his bench again.

    Timothy Eyoma replaces Aaron McGowan.

  6. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 4-0 Shrewsbury

    Alfie May (84 mins)

    Like London buses...

    None in 17 games, two in seven minutes. Sub Alfie May does brilliantly to round keeper Jamal Blackman before firing into the net.

    They might not be done yet either...

  7. Cambridge United 1-1 Northampton

    James Brophy has already scored direct from a corner and now he has a dip from 20 yards but Lee Burge is safely behind it for the visitors.

    Cambridge need to win this.

  8. GREAT SAVE!

    Exeter 0-2 Wrexham

    The visitors are trying to tick their goal difference up as they know it could prove crucial.

    Joe Whitworth did well to claw a Ryan Longman cross away from two Wrexham heads and moments later produced a fine save to deny Red Dragons sub Steven Fletcher, who replaced Jay Rodriguez, after some neat close control in the box.

    Whitworth has also denied Ollie Rathbone for the umpteenth time as he seeks to add to his opening goal.

    Exeter's six-match unbeaten run is entering the final few minutes.

  9. League Two updates

    #bbcefl

    Fleetwood Town now lead MK Dons 4-1 following Owen Devonport's goal.

    Bromley have pulled a goal back against Salford City and now trail 3-2 due to Michael Cheek's left-footed strike.

    Doncaster Rovers have extended their lead against relegation-threatened Carlisle United and lead 3-0 following Harry Clifton's 73rd minute goal.

  10. Blackpool 2-1 Bolton

    The Trotters are piling forward in search of a leveller but Aaron Collins' ball across the face of goal evades everyone, while sub Carlos Mendes Gomes can't connect with a cross from George Johnston.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Cambridge United 1-1 Northampton

    A double change for Northampton.

    Tom Eaves and Mitch Pinnock are off,.

    Tyler Magloire and Akin Odimayo are on.

  12. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Walsall 0-1 AFC Wimbledon

    Double change for both sides following Omar Bugiel's crucial goal.

    Jamille Matt and Danny Johnson are replaced for the hosts and in their place come on Levi Amantchi and ex-Middlesbrough and Aston Villa winger Albert Adomah.

    Dons head coach Johnnie Jackson responds and withdraws Marcus Brown and Riley Harbottle for Aron Sasu and Isaac Ogundere.

  13. It is looking so bleak for Walsall..

    Walsall 0-1 AFC Wimbledon

    Sanny Rudravajhala
    BBC Radio 5 Live at Poundland Bescot Stadium

    Walsall have been brighter this half but it’s a goal you could see coming.

    An excellent finish from Omar Bugiel, off the bench and in the goals, but this is looking so bleak for Walsall.

    They’ll still lead League Two but they’ve been wobbling for a while and now the wheels are coming off. If they don’t turn this around, it’s seven without a win.

    Mat Sadler brings on Albert Adomah and Levi Amantchi, the home fans are a bag of nerves, can the subs settle them and get the leaders back on track?

  14. goal

    GOAL: Birmingham 3-0 Shrewsbury

    Alfie May (77 mins)

    Alfie May of Birmingham City scores their sides third goalRex Features

    It was already over, this is just gloss...

    Sub Emil Hansson does well down the left and whips the ball into the middle for Alfie May to turn home his 11th league goal of the season - albeit his first in 17 games - from a couple of yards out. He's only been on four or five minutes.

    It might be a very long time before these sides meet in a league game again.

  15. GREAT SAVE!

    Exeter 0-2 Wrexham

    Ollie Rathbone's opener might have needed some help from a deflection, but he got absolutely all of his latest strike from range and Grecians keeper Joe Whitworth does very well to hold on to it cleanly.

  16. Shrewsbury looking for a 'little spark'

    Birmingham 2-0 Shrewsbury

    Steve Cross
    Ex-Shrewsbury Town defender on BBC Radio Shropshire

    It his heartbreaking for the Shrewsbury fans, who have paid their money to be here today.

    It has been a poor performance from Town today.

    I'm hoping the two substitutes can add a little spark to this game.

  17. YELLOW CARD

    Cambridge United 1-1 Northampton

    Max Dyche heads Mitch Pinnock's free-kick wide for Northampton before the home side's Josh Stokes is the second Cambridge man cautioned.

  18. CLOSE!

    Blackpool 2-1 Bolton

    Agony for the visiting fans. Aaron Morley's fizzing strike from 20 yards flashes past Harry Tyrer and the back of the net ripples.

    Only it's gone past the post... and bounced off a board into the net. The celebrations are cut short to be replaced by painful jeers of derision from the home fans.

    One of the worst feelings in sports fandom, the false celebration.

  19. YELLOW CARD

    Cambridge United 1-1 Northampton

    The home side's Ben Stevenson is the first man to earn referee Matthew Russell's ire and is cautioned.

  20. goal

    GOAL: Walsall 0-1 AFC Wimbledon

    Omar Bugiel (70 mins)

    BIG goal at the top of League Two!

    Alistair Smith’s shot is well saved by Sam Hornby but jogging on the spot was substitute Omar Bugiel, who wasn’t to be denied as he sweeps the rebound into the corner!

    Dons look set to go straight back into the promotion spots following Port Vale's win at lunchtime, and struggling Walsall are looking down the gun of seven on the bounce without a win in the league.
