    Huddersfield 2-0 Sheff Wed

    Sheffield Wednesday certainly applying the squeeze to Huddersfield, but just can't find a route past Ben Hamer.

    The ball has been pumped into the box plenty, but an opening proving hard to come by.

    Parity achieved!

    The sub Jon Dadi Bodvarsson crashes in via a deflection past Seny Dieng, to rouse the home support at The Den.

    A quick free-kick released Jed Wallace down the right, his cross was not cleared by Dominic Ball, and Iceland international Bodvarsson brought down the header and thumped in.

    ALL SQUARE.

  3. GREAT SAVE!published at 21:14 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Millwall 0-1 QPR

    QPR get themselves into a great position with a searching ball into space where Ilias Chair buzzes menacingly.

    He drives wide, exchanges passes with Dominic Ball and then hits another ripper, with no backlift, which cannons off the chest of the diving Millwall keeper Bartosz Bialkowski and is cleared.

    Chair is in the mood.

    GOAL: Stoke 1-1 Cardiffpublished at 21:12 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Robert Glatzel (66 mins)

    Cardiff level things up.

    In comes a ball towards the back post and Robert Glatzel takes a nice first touch to get it under control and puts it away with a cool finish past Josef Bursik.

    That's two in three for Glatzel.

    That missed penalty has come back to bite Stoke.

    Millwall 0-1 QPR

    Bright Osayi-Samuel collects a scooped ball into the box and drives low but it's blocked behind by Bartosz Bialkowsi in the Millwall goal.

    Rob Dickie heads the corner wide.

    At the other end. Mahlon Romeo sweeps in a back-post cross by Jon Dadi Bodvarsson just pings his header off the top of his head and out for a goal kick.

    Much better though from Millwall.

    Coventry 0-0 Luton

    Couple of chances for Coventry.

    Gustavo Hamer has a pop from 30 yards but it's straight at Luton keeper James Shea.

    Moments later, Maxime Biamou gets his head onto a Fankaty Dabo cross but he directs it wide.

    Millwall 0-1 QPR

    Millwall ring the changes in a bid to change fortunes...

    Ryan Leonard, Matt Smith and Jon Dadi Bodvarsson come on.

    Shaun Williams, Alex Pearce and Mason Bennett are off.

  8. MISSED PENALTYpublished at 21:07 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Stoke 1-0 Cardiff

    But Stoke don't take that chance.

    Cardiff keeper Alex Smithies denies Sam Vokes from the spot with a fine save.

    Millwall 0-1 QPR

    Millwall get a corner on the back of Mahlon Romeo's surge down the the right, but Jed Wallace's delivery is glanced well wide by Mason Bennett.

    Before that it had been getting a bit scrappy from the Lions, they need to pick their proverbial chins up.

  10. PENALTY TO STOKEpublished at 21:05 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Stoke 1-0 Cardiff

    Stoke with the chance to make it two.

    Nick Powell goes down under the challenge from Sean Morrison and the referee points to the spot.

  11. Too close to callpublished at 21:05

    Swansea 0-0 Bournemouth

    Gareth Vincent
    BBC Sport Wales at the Liberty Stadium

    This contest is much more even now than it was in the first half, when Bournemouth dominated for a while before Swansea responded with a good spell of their own.

    Both sides have had opportunities in the second half of what is an increasingly open contest.

    The question now is whether either side can find a decisive moment of quality in the final third.

    Watford 2-0 Rotherham

    Angus McDonald attacks a nice delivery from Dan Barlaser, but it's wide of the post.

    Rotherham throwing a bit at Watford here.

  13. Postpublished at 21:02 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Millwall 0-1 QPR

    How has Lyndon Dykes missed that?! Rangers could have been 2-0 up.

    Great work from Rangers to get in, in the box, from Yoann Barbet's free-kick, and Ilias Chair flicks to the open Dykes.

    He takes on the bounce, but puts it straight at goalkeeper Bartosz Bialkowski.

  14. MISSED PENALTYpublished at 20:59 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Huddersfield 2-0 Sheff Wed

    Dominic Iorfa brings down Juninho Bacuna in the box, handing Huddersfield perhaps a golden chance to seal it even at this stage, but the same player picks himself up and misses!

    Wide. Let-off. Can Wednesday use that as a catalyst? They were sent back out early to face the music by boss Tony Pulis.

  15. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 20:58 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Stoke 1-0 Cardiff

    Stoke almost double their lead.

    James Chester climbs the highest to meet James McClean's corner but the headed effort comes off the bar.

    WHAT A ROCKET.

    Ilias Chair picks up the ball about 25 yards out, and hits a screamer. Straight as a die, thundered past Bartosz Bialkowski into the near post.

    It went like a bullet. Against the flow of play. Rangers take the lead.

    There's something hearteningly encouraging about professional footballers trickling a daisycutter through to the goalkeeper.

    Makes you feel a little less inadequate. Millwall's Mahlon Romeo doing just that a moment ago. Easy take.

    Swansea 0-0 Bournemouth

    Big chance for Bournemouth to take the lead but Junior Stanislas' volley goes just wide.

    The Cherries have started this half on top, just like the majority of the first.

    Watford 2-0 Rotherham

    Kyle Vassell gets a great chance to pull one back for Rotherham, but Ben Foster pulls off a terrific save to push away a fierce half-volley.

    Watford twice gave the ball away in their own half, the latter in their own box, but Vassell unable to beat the cat-like keeper.

  20. Postpublished at 20:51 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2020

    Millwall 0-0 QPR

    Almost had a goal to tell you about already and we've only been back under way a minute or so.

    QPR enjoyed the chance, Dominic Ball curling toward goal from about 20 yards out but the Bartman - Bialkowski - scampered across to palm away.

    Lively.
