Kieran Dowell (82 mins)
Now it is five and what a goal by Kieran Dowell!
He sets himself on the edge of the box and curls a lovely finish into the bottom corner.
Birmingham are running away with it now and Barnsley's battling efforts are very much in vain.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:46 British Summer Time 5 April

Bolton 1-0 Bristol
Lee Mansell
Former Bristol Rovers midfielder on BBC Radio Bristol
Questions have to be asked as to why Aaron Collins was able to have a free shot at Jed Ward's net.
It was a great ball in though from Gethin Jones - you have to give them that.
GOAL: Birmingham 4-2 Barnsleypublished at 16:37 British Summer Time 5 April
Luke Harris (72 mins)
Surely that's game over this time?!
Birmingham substitute Luke Harris, who has only been on the pitch five minutes, bursts into the box on the right and slots a composed finish into the bottom corner.
The 10 men of Barnsley have fought back and fought back but this might just knock the stuffing out of them.
Blues are almost certainly going up... just two more points needed if they see it out.
GOAL: Charlton 2-2 Lincolnpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 5 April
Greg Docherty (75 mins)
Unbelievable!! Charlton have come from two behind to level it up!
A long throw comes into the box and Lincoln can only half clear it before skipper Greg Docherty fires home a half-volley.
Can the Addicks go on and complete the comeback now?
Strong attendance as always for Bradford in League Twopublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 5 April
Bradford 1-0 Crewe
22,214 are watching this one live in West Yorkshire, Crewe brought 843 fans across the Pennines too, currently in vain, but they are still in this game at only one goal down.
GOAL: Bolton 1-0 Bristol Roverspublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 5 April
Aaron Collins (76 mins)
Deadlock broken.
Aaron Collins has been testing the Gas keeper Jed Ward in the past few minutes and now, he's finally got the stopper beat.
He gets a head on the end of substitute Gethin Jones' cross and nods it into the net to take the lead.
Postpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 5 April
Charlton 1-2 Lincoln
Lincoln goalkeeper George Wickens takes his time over a restart and goes into the book.
Charlton's eight-game winning run at The Valley is under threat unless they can find a way back into it.
Postpublished at 16:34 British Summer Time 5 April
