    Derby County 1-3 Brentford

    Derby make a penalty claim as Tom Lawrence goes down as him and Rico Henry try and win a header.

    Lawrence might have had a case there, but the referee does not agree. Wayne Rooney trudges off in the opposite direction clearly not happy with that decision.

    Charlton 0-1 Reading

    Reading have a rare venture into the Charlton area as Yakou Meite puts in a low cross for Omar Richards but the ball gets stucks under a clutch of players and the keeper collects.

    Is there still another goal in this?

    Keep wanting to type "Derby's Dom Sibley" instead of Louie, but namesake Dom is currently doing his thing in England's second innings at the Ageas Bowl against the West Indies.

    Not quite been a successful afternoon for the Derby teenager, who is one of three players to make way with 10 minutes remaining.

    Said Benrahma, meanwhile, is one of two players brought off for Brentford - certainly been a headline-grabbing afternoon for him!

    Ross Parlett: An absolute peach of a goal by Benrahma. I'm hoping Brentford go up this season as I fear their front three will be dismantled in sales if not. Not my team but growing a soft spot for them because they're playing exciting, attacking football!

    Pete Stones: Brentford being dragged into contention by the one man most likely to leave them in a few weeks time.

    Derby County 1-3 Brentford

    Ollie Watkins makes a huge shout for a penalty as he tumbles to the deck inside the box after Omar Bogle's challenge.

    Referee Tim Robinson not interested and Watkins actually should've probably done better to get his shot away.

    Bryan Mbeumo meanwhile tries to get in on the act as he fires an effort across goal from the right that goes behind for a goal kick.

    Just over 15 minutes to play.

    Charlton 0-1 Reading

    It's still all Charlton but Reading still have the lead.

    You can't knock the home side's effort but they've been unable to breach the Reading defence.

    Derby County 1-3 Brentford

    Jason Knight still plugging away for Derby.

    Gets into the box down Brentford's left but his low shot is straight at David Raya, who can demonstrate a very handsome long barrier to stop that one.

    Wouldn't look out of place on the cricket fields across the country as the recreational game returns this afternoon.

    Derby County 1-3 Brentford

    Long way back for Derby in this one now.

    Brentford up to 78 Championship goals this season so far. They're heading for a seventh successive win, Derby staring down the barrel of back-to-back defeats.

    Louie Sibley tries his luck on the volley as the ball breaks to him in the area but it's nowhere near being on target.

    Drinks time once more....

    Charlton 0-1 Reading

    The next goal is big in this.

    If Reading get it the game should be over, if Charlton get it then it's game on and because they have all momentum they'll look for a winner.

    Oh my word - what a goal this is!

    Contender for goal of the season without question and the goal that is going to secure Brentford's place in the play-offs.

    Ben Hamer may well have been at fault for Said Benrahma's first goal but he had no chance of stopping this one.

    It's a superb curling right-foot effort from just outside the penalty area that clips the post as it makes its way into the top right corner.

    Superb stuff!

    Derby County 1-2 Brentford

    Yellow card for Derby's Jason Knight as he and Rico Henry tangle for the ball.

    A little reckless from Knight as he went in over the top of the ball.

    Frustration evident for the hosts as they try to claw themselves level for a second time.

    Charlton 0-1 Reading

    Not much between the two sides, Charlton are pressing for the equaliser, Reading probably need to change things in terms of shape to get back on the ball.

    Derby County 1-2 Brentford

    Brentford still pressing for a third goal.

    Nice build-up in and around the Derby penalty area finishes with Christian Norgaard firing a low shot wide of the left post.

    Derby County 1-2 Brentford

    Pontus Jansson gives away a clumsy free-kick to Derby on the edge of his penalty area.

    Wayne Rooney with the right-foot delivery....Matt Clarke unable to get a clear head on it at the back post and Louie Sibley's hook back into the danger area falls into the hands of Bees keeper David Raya.

    Almost an hour gone.

    Derby County 1-2 Brentford

    Said Benrahma denied another sight of goal as his direct free-kick strikes a Derby head in the wall.

    More problems for Ben Hamer though as he spills a Josh Da Silva shot this time. Harmless on this occasion as he fumbles it behind for a corner but Hamer is shaken up.

    Said Benrahma with his 16th league goal of the season there, assuming it doesn't get changed to a Ben Hamer own goal by the old "dubious goals panel".

    If it is his goal, it moves him one ahead of attack partner Bryan Mbeumo.

    Derby respond to falling behind again by forcing three successive corners. None of them find a white shirt and Brentford get it clear.

    Charlton 0-1 Reading

    Charlton have started this half the way they ended the first and they've had a good chance.

    The ball drops to Chuks Aneke and he has a crack on goal but it's touched over by Royals keeper Rafael Cabral.

    Look away now Derby fans and especially goalkeeper Ben Hamer...

    Not a moment he will want to see again as he fails to hold on to a shot from Said Benrahma that eventually sees Brentford retake the lead.

    Benrahma with the drive from inside the penalty area that it looked like Hamer was across to stop to his left but the ball squirmed underneath his body and just over the line.

    And we're back under way in both games.

    Guns 'n' Roses' Welcome To The Jungle the PA tune of choice at Pride Park to fire up the atmosphere.

    Not really sure for who's benefit though in an empty stadium?!
