    He's done it again!!!

    Defender Naby Sarr doesn't get many but he's got two tonight.

    Pipa chips the ball over the Rovers defence and Sarr finishes like an expert striker.

    Norwich 1-1 QPR

    Miss of the season! Should be 2-1 QPR.

    A classic counter down the right and Adomah flashes a cross across the face of goal.

    Goalscorer Bright Osayi-Samuel gets ahead of his defender and somehow taps it over from two yards out.

    Was easier to score. Seconds remain.

    Rotherham 1-2 Barnsley

    It's 11 behind the ball for Barnsley, but Rotherham don't have the creativity to pick their opponents apart.

    Long ball stuff now.

    Sam Gallagher (86 mins)

    Late leveller!

    The hosts had had chances to add to their lead and they've been punished.

    Sam Gallagher gets his fourth of the season from close range after Ryan Schofield had parried Adam Armstrong's cross-shot.

    What a penalty.

    Bright's bundled over by Hanley. Norwich are furious!

    Wycombe 2-0 Cardiff

    Wycombe forward Uche Ikpeazu has just been booked for taking too long to leave the field after being substituted.

    That should tell you all you need to know about this game. Twelve minutes to go at Adams Park.

    Huddersfield 1-0 Blackburn

    Huddersfield full-back Harry Toffolo maybe should have his third of the season but he drags wide after some really nice approach play.

  13. GREAT SAVE!published at 21:24 Greenwich Mean Time 29 December 2020

    Norwich 1-0 QPR

    A first big test for debutant Daniel Barden.

    Dominic Ball, who conceded the penalty so nearly atones, but his downward header is well-saved by the Canaries keeper.

  14. goal

    GOAL: Stoke 1-1 Nottm Forestpublished at 21:24 Greenwich Mean Time 29 December 2020

    James Chester og (65 mins)

    Forest level things up at the Bet365 Stadium as Stoke's defence is breached for the first time in over 430 minutes.

    Anthony Knockeart swings in a threatening cross from the left and Stoke centre-back James Chester flicks the ball into his own net under pressure from Forest's Joe Worrall.

    League One and League Two update

    Oxford have turned things around at Home Park, with Sam Long slotting the U's 2-1 up at Plymouth with a quarter of an hour remaining.

    Meanwhile, Barrow are down to 10 men against Tranmere in League Two, with Harrison Biggins dismissed for a second bookable offence.

    Still 1-1 there.

    No mistake, Teemu Pukki sends the keeper the wrong way.

    Thoroughly deserved as Norwich had dominated. But that foul on Cantwell does seem a little harsh on QPR.

  17. PENALTY to Norwichpublished at 21:18 Greenwich Mean Time 29 December 2020

    Norwich 0-0 QPR

    Dominic Ball trips Todd Cantwell.

    Looked soft.

    Stoke 1-0 Nottm Forest

    Chance for Forest, as right-back Cyrus Christie sends a left-footed effort narrowly wide of the Stoke goal from outside the box.

    That is as close as the visitors have come to a goal this evening.

    Just over half an hour is left.

  19. CLOSE!published at 21:17 Greenwich Mean Time 29 December 2020

    Rotherham 1-2 Barnsley

    Another big opportunity for the Millers.

    This time Ben Wiles delivers a cracking low cross but George Hirst can't quite direct it on target.

    The hosts are well on top.

    Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall (68 mins)

    The hosts retake the lead!

    Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall picks up a loose ball 30 yads from goal, advances and then hits a great low left-footed strike.
