Wycombe's second goal straight from Joe Jacobson's corner will go down as an Alex Cairns own goal by the way.

Not that Gareth Ainsworth's side will care much. I'm not sure I've ever seen an opening six minutes like that before.

Wycombe have a free kick 20 yards out - Joe Jacobson sends it just over the bar. Good. Four goals in the opening 12 minutes would have been nonsense.

Games have been pretty boring since football's return haven't they?

And breathe.

Crikey, now a penalty to Fleetwood...

Wycombe keeper Ryan Allsop appears to bundle over Lewis Gibson and the referee points to the spot.

It looked soft.

Fleetwood's Josh Morris chips the ball into the net inside the first 30 seconds. But he's a mile offside. Nice finish.

The players kneel in recognition of the Black Lives Matter movement before Fleetwood get this second League One play-off semi-final under way.

Both teams are making their way out from opposite sides of Highbury Stadium. It's wet. It's windy. It's cold. It's the first week of July.

First things first a minute's applause, for the NHS and other key workers...

Wycombe were the ultimate beneficiaries from the decision to decide the regular season table on points-per-game, leapfrogging up five places to third in the process and booking a play-off berth.

Manager Gareth Ainsworth admits their fortune hasn't exactly installed them as favourites but is determined the Chairboys to ensure make the most of their opportunity.

"As a manager I need to make sure that mentally my players are ready to give their all for the club if selected," he told BBC Three Counties Radio.

"Fleetwood are a very good side. We know we're up against it. As soon as the play-offs were confirmed the bookies made us outsiders, after jumping from eighth to third.

"All these things seem to make Wycombe the team that won't win the play-offs - for no reasons. You look at teams in the Championship which are beating form teams. It can happen."

Fleetwood Town might have arrived at the play-off semi-finals as the lowest ranked side of the League One promotion challengers, but form-wise their 2020 results stack up against anyone.

Since losing to Burton in mid-January, the Cod Army are unbeaten in 12 games, including a 1-0 win at tonight's opponents Wycombe in February.

"You're happy with the team you put out all the time, because that's the best team you've got," boss Joey Barton told BBC Radio Lancashire.

"Where the group's at, since the closure of the window in January I don't think there's been anyone better than us.

"There have certainly been a few sides in and around us that have been as good - Coventry and Oxford have been on good runs, but the three of us were going to scrap it out for those automatic promotion places."

We'll have a full report for you on the BBC Sport website and app shortly, but there's no time to hang around.

Stay with us as we're off to the north west for Fleetwood and Wycombe's first leg.

Team news first...

All square then after the first leg at Fratton Park.

Ronan Curtis and then Marcus Browne the two first-half scorers for Portsmouth and Oxford respectively.

These two go again on Monday tea time at the Kassam Stadium and we'll have to find a way to separate them somehow once that's done with.

Another late Portsmouth penalty shout as Ronan Curtis goes to ground after tangling with the legs of Daniel Agyei off the ball.

Once more - nothing given by Gavin Ward.

"Little of note" is what I've just said to a colleague as to how you'd best describe this second half....

Unless someone fancies popping up late on to change that script?

Five minutes being added on at the end of this first leg...

Oxford midfielder Alex Gorrin sees yellow for fouling a surging Ronan Curtis as he approached the visitors' penalty area.

Marcus Harness with the free-kick that follows but it's gleefully held by Simon Eastwood as no blue shirts can get on the end of it.

Last few minutes of this first leg.

Are both sides happy to settle for what they have here going into Monday's return?
