    Six minutes added on.

    Can the visitors find something to keep this tie very interesting ahead of Saturday's second leg?

  3. Postpublished at 58 mins

    Bolton 2-1 Barnsley (5-2 agg)

    Chance for Bolton to go four clear.

    They pinch the ball back 40 yards from goal and go straight for the jugular.

    George Thomason tees up Dion Charles in the area but he drags his shot well wide.

    Crawley 3-0 MK Dons

    Crawley want to make absolutely sure that game at Stadium MK is dead in the water before they even get on the bus. They are still pushing and probing. They want that fourth.

    Bolton 2-1 Barnsley (5-2 agg)

    The Reds have their first shot of the second half.

    Herbie Kane wins the ball back about 30 yards out and sets it to the side for Luca Connell.

    The former Bolton man progresses before dragging a shot wide of the post from 20 yards.

    Realistically Barnsley are going to have to make the most of opportunities like that if they're to pull off a remarkable comeback.

    It's looking pretty safe at the moment for Bolton Wanderers.

    Crawley 3-0 MK Dons

    And it is very very nearly four!

    A free-kick from the right is very cleverly worked short, the cross comes in and Klaidi Lolos heads against the bar before the rebound is headed in.

    But Lolos was just offside!

  8. 'Perfect Crawley'published at 21:12 British Summer Time 7 May

    Crawley 3-0 MK Dons

    Toby Lock
    MK Citizen's sports editor on BBC Three Counties Radio

    Crawley have been on it from the very first minutes of this game and they've ran Dons ragged. They've done everything right.

  9. Postpublished at 50 mins

    Bolton 2-1 Barnsley (5-2 agg)

    There's going to be chances for both side here.

    Barnsley are playing forward as much as they can but that's leaving space for Bolton to exploit.

    Josh Sheehan whips another inswinging corner into the middle for the home side and Tykes keeper Liam Roberts just manages to flick it away.

  10. Postpublished at 78 mins

    Crawley 3-0 MK Dons

    A fourth goal may kill the tie and Crawley remain dangerous.

    Down the right they go with a fizzing cross from substitute Kellan Gordon that's just over the heads of the red shirts in the middle.

    Then Liam Kelly from the left gets to the byline and crosses to the far post but no-one is there in red to turn home and the visitors clear.

    Back under way.

    No changes.

    Bolton firmly in control of this.

  12. 'Tenacious Crawley'published at 21:05 British Summer Time 7 May

    Crawley 3-0 MK Dons

    Toby Lock
    MK Citizen's sports editor on BBC Three Counties Radio

    MK Dons look half-threatening. There's been a couple of breaks for Kyran Lofthouse on the right-hand side, a couple of sniffs for Ellis Harrison. It's close but it's way off.

    It's everything that you fear going into the play-offs; having everything snatched from your hands. Crawley have just been tenacious.

  13. Postpublished at 72 mins

    Crawley 3-0 MK Dons

    MK desperately need something to take back to Buckinghamshire.

    They work it well down the left and Max Dean is free at the top of the penalty area.

    He takes a touch onto his right boot and whacks it miles over the stand!

    Surely should have taken it first time with his left.

    Bolton are set fair to reach a play-off final for the first time in quite some time.

    Well, 23 years to be exact.

    A moustachioed Sam Allardyce led Wanderers to a 3-0 win over David Moyes' Preston in the 2001 Division One play-off final at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium to win promotion to the Premiership.

    If any of those things feel wrong to you then congratulations, you are still young.

    That's cruel on Michael Kelly. It's taken a deflection.

    Worst possible scenario for MK Dons.

    It was a mountain at two, might as well be another planet at three.

    GOAL: Crawley 3-0 MK Donspublished at 64 mins

    Ronan Darcy

    Crawley are well in control against MK Dons now.

    Ronan Darcy picks up the ball on the corner of the visitors' box and lifts a looping shot into the net.

    A long way back for MK in this tie, now.

    Bolton came roaring back after falling behind and they're well on course for the final now.

    In truth, the home side had had the better of things prior to Sam Cosgrove giving the Tykes the lead.

    Thereafter Wanderers looked a little wobbly but Aaron Collins thumped in from 25 yards out after the visitors failed to close him down and just three minutes later Eoin Toal headed in to put them three goals up on aggregate.

    Barnsley are going to have to throw caution to the wind if they're to get back into this.

    Brilliant, brilliant by Bolton again.

    Surely that now secures a Wembley place for Bolton Wanderers?

    It's two in two minutes for Bolton.
