    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Ollie Banks takes a run-up and whacks one from at least 25 yards.

    It's a good hit but it's always rising and Joe Day has no issues watching it go over.

    Tranmere no closer to a breakthrough.

  3. CLOSE!published at 109 mins

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Tranmere break from the corner and James Norwood isolates himself against Dan Butler.

    The defender holds him off but Norwood gets a shot away that deflects wide for a corner.

    Sid Nelson commits a foul however, and Newport survive.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Keanu Marsh-Brown's first act is to sting the hands of Tranmere keeper Scott Davies, who pushes the ball behind for a corner.

    A chance for Newport.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    We're back playing again for the second half of extra-time.

    Newport bring Keanu Marsh-Brown on for Robbie Willmott. Another forward-thinking player off the bench for the 10 men.

  6. HALF-TIMEpublished at 17:14 British Summer Time 25 May 2019

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Two Tranmere players get in the way of each other and the ball goes out. Sums it up really.

    We have 15 more minutes to try to avoid penalties.

    Newport held their own with 10 men but arguably should've had another red card when Mickey Demetriou blatantly dragged down James Norwood.

    One minute added in the first half of extra time.

    Tranmere looking a bit unsure at the back and by no means in charge of this, but they do have a corner kick.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Padraig Amond gets his head to it but it's a simple stop for Tranmere keeper Scott Davies.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Tyreeq Bakinson uses his skill to win a corner for Newport.

    Smash and grab opportunity for the Welsh side before half time in extra time.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 103 mins

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Newport take a striker off, a sensible move when you're down to 10.

    But the tireless Jamille Matt is replaced by another forward, with Ade Azeez coming on in his place.

    Bold move from Michael Flynn.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Have Newport got away with one there? I think they have!

    Mickey Demetriou loses his footing as the last man and pulls down James Norwood, but the ref isn't interested.

    Perhaps he thought the ball was too hard and was going through to Joe Day, but the Welsh side could've been down to nine.

    Tranmere aren't showing a whole lot of urgency, here.

    Newport have negotiated the first nine minutes of extra time without too much bother at all.

    Michael Wade: If Ben Pringle scoers the winner I can just see the headline "Crisp finish from Pringle"

    Michael: I'm sorry. I'm a neutral watching this and you're honestly going to tell me that not ONE of the Newport penalty appeals was an actual penalty?? Terrible refereeing.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Connor Jennings tries to find dangerman James Norwood in the channel but he overhits the pass and it goes harmlessly out of play for a Newport goal kick.

    Tired legs and tired minds...

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Nothing much happening in these early minutes of extra time.

    If Tranmere don't manage to see off the 10 men of Newport here they could live to regret it.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Interesting that Newport have kept both Padraig Amond and Jamille Matt on the pitch - they clearly feel they can still win this in extra time.

    Should they be more conservative and play for penalties? Only time will tell.

  17. Extra timepublished at 91 mins

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Michael Flynn makes a change before the start of extra time - Tyreeq Bakinson on for Josh Sheehan.

    And we're back under way at Wembley.

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    Tranmere will be firm favourites now with the extra man, but Newport will still be able to put those crosses and long throws in the box.

    Tiredness and nerves will also no doubt play a factor.

  19. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:53 British Summer Time 25 May 2019

    Newport 0-0 Tranmere

    The time has come for extra time.

    Jamille Matt's stooping header was pushed onto the post by Tranmere keeper Scott Davies, and Padraig Amond missed a big chance at the death, but we still have no breakthrough.

    So we have another 30 minutes to try to solve this. Newport are a man down after Mark O'Brien's red card.

    Mickey Demetriou with two long throws for Newport but both are cleared.

    Is that it?
