    Wigan 0-1 Derby

    Wigan won't believe they've lost this game (if they do).

    This time Joe Garner shoots just wide, then Sam Morsy gets crowded out right under the crossbar.

    Squeaky bum time for Rams fans...

    Middlesbrough 1-1 Blackburn

    Blackburn played for 70 minutes with a man advantage but can only draw.

    Bradley Dack came closest to a winner for the visitors, but Boro were good value for their point.

  4. goal

    GOAL: Norwich 3-2 Boltonpublished at 16:52 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Teemu Pukki (90+3 mins)

    Norwich have done it again - unbelievable!

    Todd Cantwell crosses and Teemu Pukki smashes in a half-volley from around 15 yards to surely give Norwich the win.

    Daniel Farke's side just keep going and going.

  5. RED CARD FOR BOLTONpublished at 16:51 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Norwich 2-2 Bolton

    Bolton have goalscorer Sammy Ameobi sent off.

    It's a second bookable offence for pulling Todd Cantwell's shirt.

    Two minutes left for Norwich to find a winner.

  6. CLOSE!published at 16:50 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Wigan 0-1 Derby

    So close for Wigan! They do not deserve to lose this game, especially having been down to 10 men for 75 minutes.

    A long throw is controlled by giant centre-half Dan Burn, who's sure he's fired into the top corner only for Scott Carson to tip it behind.

    Derby are praying that the clock goes quicker.

    Leeds 2-1 QPR

    Norwich conceding means Leeds will go top if things end as they are.

    But QPR look dangerous - Massimo Luongo has a shot blocked and Jake Bidwell forces Bailey Peacock-Farrell to tip over his volley.

  8. goal

    GOAL: Norwich 2-2 Boltonpublished at 16:47 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Mark Beevers (88 mins)

    What did I say about twists and turns?!

    Bolton play long into the box and Norwich just cannot deal with it.

    The ball falls to defender Mark Beevers who thumps one into the top of the net from around six yards - the leaders pegged back.

  9. CLOSE!published at 16:46 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Brentford 2-3 Swansea

    Now that would've been a spectacular equaliser.

    Romaine Sawyers volleys 25 yards from goal and it's just wide of the target. Brentford are still pushing to complete this comeback.

    For Swansea meanwhile, it's "what we have we hold" as defender Cameron Carter-Vickers replaces Wayne Routledge.

    Stoke 2-0 Ipswich

    Stoke are the only side winning by more than a goal in the Championship as we enter the last five minutes or so.

    Twists and turns are virtually guaranteed - you can't help but love this Championship.

  11. CLOSE!published at 16:45 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Middlesbrough 1-1 Blackburn

    Tony MowbrayImage source, Rex Features

    Boro so close to completing a turnaround with 10 men.

    Britt Assombalonga lobs Blackburn keeper David Raya but Paul Downing gets back to clear the ball off the line.

    Tony Mowbray's side are hanging in there.

  12. Postpublished at 16:41 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Wigan 0-1 Derby

    Just a polite reminder that WIGAN have 10 men, not Derby.

    The home side are throwing everything at their opponents in search of an equaliser. Lee Evans with another effort, this time just wide after being teed up by Sam Morsy.

  13. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:41 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Nottingham Forest 0-1 Preston

    Daryl Murphy has just come off the bench and sees his header brilliantly tipped over by Preston keeper Declan Rudd.

    That could easily be a match-winning save for the visitors.

    Forest continue to push and push but it's not quite happened.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:40 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Leeds 2-1 QPR

    QPR take off talented forward Eberechi Eze, with former Leeds striker Matt Smith on in his place.

    Smith is an absolute man-mountain, so you can presume the visitors are planning to go direct now.

    Can Leeds stand up to a late aerial bombardment?

  15. goal

    GOAL: Brentford 2-3 Swanseapublished at 16:37 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Said Benrahma (69 mins)

    GAME ON!

    What a time for Said Benrahma to score his first league goal for Brentford by smashing in a free-kick from 25 yards.

    Can Brentford do this?! They were 3-0 down after 27 minutes of this game.

    Stoke 2-0 Ipswich

    I think Jordan Roberts, and a lot of people in the ground, thought he'd just scored for Ipswich.

    But his dragged shot is just inches wide of the post after taking a slight deflection.

    Credit to Ipswich, they keep on going.

  17. Postpublished at 16:35 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Norwich 2-1 Bolton

    Just when they need it most Norwich are showing the necessary composure to stay in control.

    Marco Stiepermann comes close to his second, his shot only just off-target after a flowing move.

    It was one of those shots where half the home crowd think it's gone in...

  18. goal

    GOAL: Millwall 2-2 Hullpublished at 16:32 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Markus Henriksen (73 mins)

    Level again at The Den - Hull captain Markus Henriksen heads in his side's second goal of the afternoon.

    Leeds 2-1 QPR

    QPR have been outplayed in this second half but come close to an equaliser.

    Angel Rangel - who signed a new deal this week - sets up Nahki Wells, who shoots over in search of his second goal.

    A warning for Leeds, who had looked comfortable.

  20. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:32 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Stoke 2-0 Ipswich

    "Let them know they're in a game".

    I can only assume that's what was on Gwion Edwards' mind, as the Ipswich man took a matter of seconds to get himself into the referee's notebook after coming on as a sub.

    He might want to look out for Erik Pieters now, after clattering into him like that...
