YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:07 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Hull City keeper Ivor Pandur is booked for time wasting.
Heading into the final 15 minutes at the Stadium of Light. Sunderland's unbeaten home record is hanging on by a thread.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:06 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Plymouth 1-1 Cardiff
Cardiff make two more substitutions as Yakou Mete is brought on for William Alves, and Rubin Colwill is off for Cian Ashford.
With those like-for-like changes it's clear Omer Riza wants the three points.

Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Peter Swan
Former Hull City player on BBC Radio Humberside
City are really fortunate there, they have got away with one big time.
A few of the Sunderland players dropped to their knees, it was a big opportunity for them.

Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Straight down the other end and Sunderland sub Eli Mayenda hits a low shot just wide of the post after some lax defending.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:05 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Derby 0-0 Millwall
Still waiting for that elusive first attempt on target as we enter the final 17 minutes at Pride Park.
Matt Clarke's header was goalbound but ended up deflecting against the bar off Femi Azeez so that doesn't count. Harsh.
Another change is forced upon Derby as Clarke is down needing treatment and has to come off. Craig Forsyth replaces the Rams defender.

Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Eesh!
Anthony Patterson in the Sunderland goal is nearly caught out by Lincoln's massively deflected cross from the Hull right.
The big keeper manages to scramble back and slap the ball away.
Postpublished at 14:04 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Sundelrand have a free-kick wide on their left.
Patrick Roberts looks to tee up Romaine Mundle but the forward's shot is charged down.
Hull's players have made so many blocks on home shots today, really putting their all in as they try and claim three vital points.

Plymouth Argyle 1-1 Cardiff City
Brian McGlinchey
Former Plymouth Argyle defender on BBC Radio Devon
It has been all Argyle this second half.
Cardiff have been spectators, since that sending off the home side have been trying to stretch Cardiff as much as possible.
Postpublished at 14:02 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Derby 0-0 Millwall
Millwall keeper Lukas Jensen does well to dart off his line and collect Jerry Yates' low ball into the box just half-a-second ahead of Derby sub Tom Barkhuizen.
A certain peno if he'd got that wrong.
By the way, Nathanial Mendez-Laing also came on for Derby as part of a triple change, replacing Lars-Jorgen Salvesen.
Postpublished at 14:01 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Plymouth 1-1 Cardiff
This Plymouth performance is night and day from the first half.
Cardiff have seemed stunned since the red card, and just can't get out of their half.
But, as things stand the points are shared.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:00 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Quickly heading towards the final 20 minutes on Wearside as the home side win a corner down their right.
Patrick Roberts swings it in a high one to the back stick and the Tigers deal with it.
That's their cue to make three of changes.
Matt Crooks and Kyle Joseph are both withdrawn and Joao Pedro and Gus Puerta are on up front, while Charlie Hughes's return from injury is brought to an early end as he makes way for John Egan after picking up a knock.
SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 13:59 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Derby 0-0 Millwall
Changes galore for both sides after 65 minutes, two apiece for Derby.
For the hosts, Marcus Harness replaces Kenzo Goudmijn and Tom Barkhuizen is on for Kayden Jackson.
George Honeyman and Josh Coburn are on for Luke Cundle and Mihailo Ivanovic for Millwall.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 13:55 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Derby 0-0 Millwall
A good few minutes sees Derby force their fourth corner.
Matt Clarke stoops to head Kenzo Goudmijn's corner, but it hits Femi Azeez on the goalline and onto the underside of the crossbar.
It could have gone anywhere but lands in the grateful hands of Millwall keeper Lukas Jensen.
GOAL: Plymouth 1-1 Cardiffpublished at 13:55 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Muhamed Tijani (67 mins)
It's the epitomy of route-one football as the ball is lofted from the defence by Maksym Talovierov.
Mustapha Bundu heads it down and substitute Muhamed Tijani is there to sweep home his first goal for the club.
The Nigerian has only been on the pitch for a few minutes!
Massive moment in the battle to escape relegation.
DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 13:54 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Sunderland 0-1 Hull City

We've been robbed of one of the all-time great cheeky finishes here.
Hull clear a free-kick and Lincoln frees Joe Gelhardt down their right.
The Leeds loanee plays a lovely ball into Kyle Joseph and after his shot is parried the ball is flicked to the back post where Matt Crooks backheels it home from six yards.
Sadly for Tigers fans he was offside when the ball was played across.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 13:53 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Plymouth 0-1 Cardiff
It's a defensive switch for the away side as Joel Bagan is taken off for Will Fish.
For Plymouth, Muhamed Tijani is on for Rami Al Hajj.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 13:53 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Sunderland 0-1 Hull City
Patrick Roberts heads on to the roof of the net from Romaine Mundle's deep cross from the Sunderland left.
The Black Cats go to their bench for the third time this afternoon.
Eli Mayenda comes on for homegrown youngster Chris Rigg.
CLOSE!published at 13:50 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Derby 0-0 Millwall
Tristan Crama has been such a threat down the right for Millwall and swings a cross right across the six-yard box.
Luke Cundle is unable to get enough on it. Just a touch more and that would have been the opener.
An hour in and we're still waiting for an attempt on target.

Sunderland 0-1 Hull City

MASSIVE chance goes begging for the home side.
They show tenacity to win the ball back down their right.
Trai Hume swings in a beauty to the back stick for Wilson Isidor.
He makes meaty contact with his downward header but sticks it wide of the post.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 13:49 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Plymouth 0-1 Cardiff
NEARLY!
Bali Mumba makes space and cracks one off the crossbar, and it's scrambled clear by Aaron Ramsey.
10-man Cardiff will have half an hour of this. Can they hold on?
