Walsall left-back Liam Gordon has been lively in this second half.

He puts in some nice footwork to keep hold of possession in the box but his strike is kept out by Shrimps keeper Harry Burgoyne's glove.

Reading striker Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan has taken a nasty blow to the face and cannot continue.

He's replaced by Jayden Wareham.

Another Morecambe chance goes begging.

Substitute Adam Lewis slices a cross into the box and Marcus Dackers rises high to meet it.

The forward connects but sees the ball sail above the bar.

Barnsley goalkeeper Joe Gauci hasn't been able to shake off the injury he's been struggling with and the Tykes are forced into a change.

Second choice stopper Jackson Smith is on for his first-team Barnsley debut in the South Yorkshire derby no less.

Birmingham's Ethan Laird tries to connect with a corner after it was flicked on at the near post but Reading throw bodies in front of him to block the effort.

Now it's time for Levi Amantchi and Albert Adomah.

Ellis Harrison and Jamille Matt make way for Walsall.

Got to say, all things considered, Morecambe have still had their chances since Rhys Williams' dismissal.

Saddlers boss Mat Sadler will be wanting a second insurance goal before he's feeling comfortable.

Lovely football from the hosts, who work the ball from their own goal line onto the edge of Barrow's box with some clever passing and movement.

When the shot at goal finally comes, Jack Powell flashes an effort that is turned behind for a corner.

Sam Nombe drives forward for Rotherham and is brought down about five yards outside the box on the right by Barnsley's Luca Connell and the ref shows him yellow.

The free-kick is met by Jonson Clarke-Harris at the near post but he can't sort his feet out and it just hits him and goes out for a goal-kick.

And now Barnsley keeper Joe Gauci is back up again and fine to continue. On we go.

Morecambe bring on Callum Cooke, Gerard Garner and Adam Lewis to replace Luke Hendrie, Lee Angol and David Tutonda.

Levi Amantchi and Albert Adomah are kitted out and look ready to come on the pitch but aren't making their introduction for Walsall just yet it seems.

A break in play in Rotherham as Barnsley keeper Joe Gauci is down getting treatment and has been for a few minutes now.

This is perhaps Rotherham's best chance of the game so far!

Joe Powell floats a corner to the back stick and Sam Nombe rises highest but heads wide from about eight yards out.

The opportunity goes begging for the Millers' top scorer.

Walsall keeper Tommy Simkin takes a lie down for the second time this half and is met with a strong sound of 'boooooooooo!' from the home fans.

The referee has a word and Simkin is back up on his feet but the Shrimps faithful won't feel any better.

Their side has a mountain to climb with a man down and Walsall are preparing some fresh legs to enter the fray.

Lyndon Dykes cannot continue and hobbles off for Birmingham. Not a good couple of minutes for him, first missing a sitter and now suffering an injury.

On comes Alfie May.

Andy Whing makes two changes as his side look to get back in this one.

Joint top scorer Emile Acquah comes on with Tyler Smith. Ben Whitfield and Aaron Pressley - who saw two good chances go begging in the first half - make way.

Changes for both sides at the New York Stadium.

Louie Sibley is replaced by Jonson Clarke-Harris for Rotherham. Jordan Hugill also went off at half-time for Andre Green.

Barnsley withdraw Stephen Humphrys and Neil Farrugia for Dexter Lembikisa and Clement Rodrigues.

Blues forward Lyndon Dykes could have stuck his effort either side of Amadou Mbengue, who does well to keep his side level on his 100th appearance.

Dykes is now down with an injury and must be wondering how he didn't score that chance.

What a clearance off the line by Mbengue.

It was a sitter for the Birmingham striker but Mbengue, who is making his 100th appearance for Reading today, clears off the line.

That should have been 1-0 Birmingham.

How Birmingham are not ahead, I have no idea.

Kieran Dowell sees his shot from the edge of the box parried away by Joel Pereira in the Reading goal.

Keshi Anderson keeps it alive and squares it for Lyndon Dykes in the six-yard box and Amadou Mbengue somehow keeps it out on the line!

Emotions are beginning to flare at the Globe Arena and Walsall left-back Liam Gordon is relishing the energy.

He makes an electric run down the left and delivers the ball into the box for an awaiting Ellis Harrison.

Harrison can't get a hold of the pass though and Morecambe are able to breathe a sigh of relief as they clear the danger.
