    Rotherham 2-2 Wolves

    Wolves have completed the comeback. They were 2-0 down and are down to 10 men at Rotherham, but Iceland international Jon Dadi Bodvarsson has levelled with a shot from a tight angle.

    I can hear the Viking clap from here...

  3. goal

    GOAL: Blackburn 1-4 Norwichpublished at 16:27 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Anthony Stokes

    Game on at Ewood Park? Unlikely - but Blackburn do have a goal back through new boy Anthony Stokes.

    Norwich still in command, though.

  4. Evans endures difficult returnpublished at 16:26 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Oxford 1-0 Chesterfield

    Ched Evans' return to to professional football isn't going as he would have hoped, with his side one goal down at Oxford.

    The 27-year-old had a chance to equalise for Chesterfield, but instead fired his shot out of the ground.

    Ipswich 3-1 Barnsley

    Game over at Portman Road? David McGoldrick pops in a penalty for Ipswich after Daryl Murphy was fouled.

    What a debut Grant Ward is having for Ipswich - his second of the game restores the Tractor Boys' lead against Barnsley.

    Not bad for a player who only came on at half-time.

    Millwall 3-0 Oldham

    Millwall take sole ownership of top spot in League One, Byron Webster making the score 3-0 against Oldham.

    In League Two, Blackpool are now two goals up against Exeter. It's been a miserable couple of years for the Tangerines, but perhaps there are finally signs of a turnaround.

  9. goal

    GOAL: Blackburn 0-4 Norwichpublished at 16:17 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Steven Naismith

    A fair bet that Norwich will be top of the Championship this evening.

    Steven Naismith has added goal number four for the Canaries, who are running riot against Blackburn.

  10. RED CARDpublished at 16:16 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Rotherham 2-1 Wolves

    Wolves, trailing 2-1, have been reduced to 10 men - at Rotherham.

    England Under-21 defender Dominic Iorfa has been shown a red card for denying a goalscoring opportunity and Wanderers have it all to do now.

  11. goal

    GOAL: Nottingham Forest 3-2 Burtonpublished at 16:13 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Oliver Burke

    Nottingham Forest are in front again at home to Burton, Oliver Burke netting the home side's third.

    Barnsley didn't need long to equalise at Ipswich, with captain Conor Hourihane netting at Portman Road.

    Huddersfield 1-0 Brentford

    One of Huddersfield's 12 summer signings has found the net against Brentford - Elias Kachunga has put the Terriers ahead in West Yorkshire.

    A few people are tipping Huddersfield for a decent season under Jurgen Klopp's former assistant, David Wagner. This could be the perfect start.

    Derby 0-0 Brighton

    Derby and Brighton, two sides who reached the Championship play-offs last season, are still goalless at the iPro Stadium.

    But Brighton's Tomer Hemed has gone close to an opening goal early in the second half, his volleyed effort saved by Derby goalkeeper Scott Carson.

    Elsewhere, a debut goal from Grant Ward has put Ipswich in front against Championship newcomers Barnsley.

    Blackburn 0-3 Norwich

    Blackburn have made an attacking substitution at half-time against Norwich - Anthony Stokes is on for Elliott Bennett.

    Rovers will need an epic debut from their new striker if Owen Coyle is going to take any points from his first game in charge.

  15. League Two round-uppublished at 16:00 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Yeovil are League Two leaders at the halfway point of the first games of the season, holding a 2-0 advantage over Notts County.

    Blackpool have made a good start to life in the EFL's bottom tier, leading 1-0 at home to Exeter, having suffered relegation from League One last season.

    Mixed fortunes for the two clubs promoted from the National League last season, with Grimsby 1-0 up over Morecambe, but Cheltenham still trailing to Gavin Massey's early goal for Leyton Orient.

  17. League One round-uppublished at 15:56 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Three of the four newly-promoted sides - Northampton, Bristol Rovers and Oxford - take one-goal leads into half-time. Only Wimbledon are preventing a clean sweep, trailing by two goals at Walsall.

    There's a goalfest brewing at Spotland, with Rochdale and Peterborough level at 2-2 at the break.

    Millwall and Walsall share top spot as it stands, leading 2-0 over Oldham and the Dons respectively.

  18. Postpublished at 15:54 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Apologies for the publishing delays that affected us during the first half - it's an issue that we have been aware of for much of the afternoon, and has been affecting a lot of BBC Sport's live pages today.

    I can assure you that it's being looked into and, all being well, should be rectified shortly.

  19. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:52 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Well, plenty to go at in that first half.

    In the Championship...

    • Norwich scored three times in the first 25 minutes and lead Blackburn 3-0 at Ewood Park.
    • Burton came from behind to go 2-1 up at Nottingham Forest in their first ever Championship match, but Forest equalised just before half-time.
    • Fellow promoted side Wigan are 1-0 ahead at Bristol City.
    • Walter Zenga's first match as Wolves boss isn't going to plan, although George Saville's goal just before half-time has pulled them back to 2-1 at Alan Stubbs' Rotherham.

  20. Pompey level against 10-man Carlislepublished at 15:49 British Summer Time 6 August 2016

    Portsmouth 1-1 Carlisle

    Carlisle took an early lead at Fratton Park, but Jamie Devitt has been shown the first red card of the season after picking up a second yellow card.

    Carl Baker's shot has just drawn the hosts level in League Two, and their opponents face a tough test to take any points home.

    In League One, Bolton have got their first goal since being relegated from the Championship, Jay Spearing volleying them ahead of Sheffield United.
