GOAL: Northampton 1-1 Bristol Roverspublished at 16:18 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Dara Costelloe (61 mins)
Northampton draw level!
Terry Taylor sends a free-kick to the back post and Max Dyche does brilliantly initially to keep it alive.
Dyche then floats it back across goal and Dara Costelloe wins the aerial battle to head home his first goal since joining on loan from Burnley.
A big goal for the Cobblers in the relegation scrap.
GREAT SAVE!published at 16:17 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Northampton 0-1 Bristol Rovers
Bristol Rovers work another opportunity in almost identical fashion to their opener as Scott Sinclair gets into the box on the left again... but this time his effort is well thwarted by Northampton keeper Nikola Tzanev!
GOAL: Port Vale 2-0 Salford Citypublished at 16:16 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Rakeem Harper (52 mins)
There's confusion at the back and Rakeem Harper is there to pounce.
He blasts the ball into the centre of the net to give Port Vale a cushiony 2-0 lead.
Salford are facing quite the task now.

Colchester 0-1 AFC Wimbledon
AFC Wimbledon defender Ryan Johnson's header just drifts left as the visitors chase a second goal.
Interestingly, though the Dons have come out firing, Marcus Browne's goal is the only shot on target the visitors have posed so far.
It'll give Colchester boss Danny Cowley some room for hope as John-Kymani Gordon delivers a tasty chance for Lyle Taylor, but the striker scuffs his shot at goal.
CLOSE!published at 16:16 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
My word, will Peterborough live to rue these missed chances?
Goalkeeper Jed Steer sets the Posh away on another counter as Cian Hayes runs almost the whole length of the pitch and plays it into the box for Ricky-Jade Jones.
Jones then takes it on and fires an effort into the side-netting at the near post. The Terriers look shaky at the back at the moment.

Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
Peterborough have looked dangerous on the break all afternoon so far... they launch another counter-attack down the left with Ricky-Jade Jones who hits a teasing ball into the box but Malik Mothersille isn't able to connect.
Another great chance for the Posh.
Postpublished at 16:11 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
Peterborough are yet to win against any side in the top 11 in League One so far this season.
They hold a slender advantage over play-off chasing Huddersfield at the moment, though. Can they see it out?
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:11 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Port Vale 1-0 Salford
Salford made another change at the break.
Rosaire Longelo comes in for Luke Garbutt.
Postpublished at 16:08 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Colchester 0-1 AFC Wimbledon
Colchester's Tom Flanagan puts in a vital tackle to put a stop to Matty Stevens' early shot at goal.
The home side are having more than their fair share of the ball but Wimbledon feel like they are putting their foot on the gas now.
They want to keep hold of that second place.
Postpublished at 16:08 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
Huddersfield get in down the right with Antony Evans and he tries to pull it back across the face of goal but James Dornelly does well to slide in and block and the Posh are able to clear.
GOAL: Northampton 0-1 Bristol Roverspublished at 16:04 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Scott Sinclair (46 mins)
What a start to the second half for Bristol Rovers!
Isaac Hutchinson plays it through to Scott Sinclair on the left and he drives into the box before firing a clinical finish across goal which cannons in off the inside of the post.

HT: Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
Matt Glennon
Former Huddersfield keeper on BBC Radio Leeds
They deserve to be 1-0 down and they deserve the roasting they're going tot get from Duff at half-time.
Against 20th in the league at home, to be this nervous doesn't work for me.

HT: Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
Paul Ogden
Huddersfield Town commentator, BBC Radio Leeds
Going in at 1-0 down against relegation-threatened Peterborough means the Terriers are booed off at the break.
Peterborough look tidy, they have kept the ball well and are deservedly in the lead.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:52 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Port Vale 1-0 Salford
Image source, Rex Features
Port Vale go into the break ahead thanks to a dynamic combination of Ronan Curtis and Antwoine Hackford.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:52 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Colchester 0-1 AFC Wimbledon
There's a scrap over at Colchester but it's Wimbledon who are taking the spoils for now after Marcus Browne finds the net.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:51 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Huddersfield 0-1 Peterborough
Plenty of action at both ends but it's Peterborough who go in ahead at the halfway stage.
The Posh will feel they've been the better of the two sides and certainly had the clearer chances.
Huddersfield's play-off hopes have been hit with another setback. Will they be able to bounce back in the second half?
GOAL: Huddersfield 0-1 Peterboroughpublished at 15:49 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February
Hector Kyprianou (45+4 mins)
Peterborough break the deadlock on the stroke of half-time!
Tayo Edun fires in a powerful flat cross from the left and Hector Kyprianou is completely unmarked in the box about seven yards out and hammers a header home.
