Carlisle have got their tails up now since equalising, pressing their opponents high up the pitch.

We have just over five minutes until half time, and it's so refreshing to see both teams so keen to go forward.

Another long range effort from Blackpool's Kyle Vassell tests Stuart Moore and he's forced to make a full stretch save with his dive.

A minute later and Brad Potts tests Moore. We could have a Potts and Vassell scorer on each side tonight... (see 1903 entry)

Confidence flowing through the men in white now and Luton looking very comfortable by the seaside.

Remember this is a side that finished seven points over Blackpool in the final table.

An interesting side note to those two Luton scorers, Potts and Vassell, Blackpool have their own Potts-Vassell strike team themselves.

Luton's goalscorers are Dan Potts and Isaac Vassell while in the Tangerines have Brad Potts and Kyle Vassell in their team.

A commentator's nightmare.

It's been really, really enjoyable. Both teams have not given an inch, gone toe-to-toe and it's made for terrific viewing.

We might not have as many goals yet at Brunton Park, but it's lively.

It's Carlisle's turn to come forward and it's a slick passing move which results in Luke Joyce feeding Reggie Lambe, who curls his shot just wide of the target.

The hosts are starting to knock on the door as we pass the half hour mark.

If you weren't already aware, Exeter's Ollie Watkins is a real talent.

This time he receives the ball in his own half and darts forward on the counter attack, beating a player and moving into the penalty area.

However the youngster scuffs his shot into the grateful arms of Mark Gillespie.

Better from Blackpool as on loan midfielder Neil Danns hits a rasping drive at Stuart Moore who parries it away.

Luton defenders just about recover to black a couple of shots after that.

Jamie Proctor is a handful in the air, and I think the Exeter defenders already know this.

Reggie Lambe whips in a wonderful cross and Troy Brown just beats Proctor to the ball to head it out of harm's way.

Two facts to keep Carlisle fans upbeat - they have come from behind to win in both games against Exeter this season, and their visitors are yet to beat any of sides in the play-offs this season.

You could argue that Luton have played much more of the football in the game so far but they have not done too much with the ball in the opening half of the first 45 minutes.

The Tangerines are going well at home having won four of their last six in front of their own fans.

The hosts were almost gifted an equaliser as Exeter keeper Bobby Olejnik fumbles at the edge of his box, but the Austrian eventually gathers the ball.

At the other end, Ollie Watkins is cynically brought down by Carlisle's Michael Raynes, who is booked.

Alan Sheehan has just done a Riyad Mahrez. 

Running up to strike a 25-yard free-kick he loses his grip under his standing foot and falls over as the ball hits both feet and goes harmlessly wide.

Luton then follow that up with some good ball work on the edge of the Blackpool area.

That was a very tasty cross from Exeter full-back Pierce Sweeney, which was so nearly converted by Ollie Watkins.

Watkins won the EFL Young Player of the Year award this season but arguably should've scored there.

The forward got to the cross but could only prod it wide.

When it comes to knock-out football, Blackpool certainly know their way around a play-off campaign.

Luton's only previous play-off experience came in the third tier in 1996-97, losing the semi-final to Crewe, while Carlisle have twice lost at this stage, and this is Exeter's debut in the Football League play-offs.

It's been really scrappy, really intense and neither side has strung a couple of passes together yet.
