Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
Andy Giddings
Sports Editor, BBC Sheffield
Image source, Rex FeaturesIt was soft, it rolled into the direction of Pandur, he made an easy save.
It was an awful penalty, really really poor.
Blackburn 1-1 Stoke
Oh my word that was so close!
Blackburn hit the post as a long throw falls to Augustus Kargbo at the back post who thumps the ball into the post and it bounces away.
Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
Oh dear...
Harrison Burrows puts it low and slow to Ivor Pandur's right and the Tigers stopper gets down to block it.
There was no doubt about the award as Ajayi, not long on the pitch, rakes his studs down the back of Danny Ings' leg.
But there not much conviction in the hit from Burrows either as Pandur makes his first ever penalty save of his senior career.
Sheff Wed 0-5 Coventry
Sub George Brown produces a good touch from Jamal Lowe's pass and drives into the box but Luke Woolfenden defends well to prevent a shot on goal and the subsequent Owls corner comes to nothing.
Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
Semi Ajayi clips Danny Ings and Sheffield have a lifeline.
Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
Tom Cannon forces a corner for Sheffield United which is slung in from the left to prompt a real old school goalmouth scramble. Danny Ings has a go and Harrison Burrows another. Matt Crooks digs it off the line as Hull City survive.
Sheff Wed 0-5 Coventry
Not sure this will count as a first Owls shot on target but Harry Amass gets his low cross from the left of the area slightly wrong and curls straight at Carl Rushworth, who crouches to gather at his near post, though crucially not muddying his kit, laundry news watchers.

Peter Swan
Former Hull City player on BBC Radio Humberside
It's not over this one.
The more pressure you feel something is going to happen.
Augustus Kargbo (81 mins)
Blackburn find the net to draw level!
Todd Cantwell does well in the box to stretch and hook the ball across goal to Augustus Kargbo who was in space to take a touch before firing it low into the bottom-right of the net.
Will we have time for a winner?
Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
Final throw of the dice for Chris Wilder sees him pitch Louie Barry on for Alex Matos.
Sergej Jakirovic responds with the withdrawal of Oli McBurnie and Joe Gelhardt for Enis Destan and Semi Ajayi.
Image source, Rex FeaturesFeel sorry for Owls players, must be difficult to motivate yourself for a game when you haven't been paid for several weeks and yours and the club's future looks pretty bleak.

Blackburn 0-1 Stoke
Stoke have another chance through that dangerman Million Manhoef.
He dribbles at pace towards the edge of the box and cuts inside before sending a shot towards goal that is saved.
Sheff Wed 0-5 Coventry
Steve Ogrizovic
Ex-Coventry City goalkeeper on BBC CWR
It's so easy, it's so pleasing on the eye.
If they're not scoring they look like they're about to go and score.
Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
A superb ball pinged into Danny Ings' feet in the left channel by Gus Hamer is controlled superbly before the striker sends an inviting cross in to Tom Cannon.
The substitute gets a glancing header on it but not enough and it flies past the far post as another chance goes begging.
At the other end Ryan Giles has a chance to seal the victory but sees a half hearted effort, part pass part shot, from the left side blocked by Mark McGuinness.
Tatsuhiro Sakamoto (75 mins)
Image source, Rex FeaturesWow.
Wednesday fail to clear a free-kick into their box and the ball drops to Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, on his weaker right foot, to lash a high half-volley past Ethan Horvath and into the net to make it five with his first goal of the season.
The gulf between these two sides today is vast. And next season that gulf might well be two divisions, at this rate.
Sheff Wed 0-4 Coventry
Haji Wright is heading off for a breather for City, having moved to nine goals for the season with that controversial third before half-time.
He's replaced by 19-year-old Kai Andrews.
Sheff Wed 0-4 Coventry
To their credit Wednesday are still plugging away and Jamal Lowe curls a ball into the box for young defender Ernie Weaver to glance a header past the far post, searching for his first Owls goal.
Sheffield Wednesday 0-4 Coventry
Rob Gurney
BBC Radio CWR Sport
Image source, Rex Features26 goals now scored this season, 15 away from home and a goal difference of 19 after nine games for Coventry.
They look in excellent form.
Blackburn 0-1 Stoke
Blackburn's Dion De Neve breaks down the left and plays a gorgeous cross to Augustus Kargbo who made a late run towards the far post.
However the forward is unable to get there and stretches to tap it home but the ball runs past him.
Hull City 1-0 Sheffield United
Gus Hamer continually finds space floating on the edge of the box at Sheffield United corners and he gets another opportunity here, sending a curling shot from 20 yards out just over.
