    Preston 0-1 Norwich

    Emi Buendia headed for the bench earlier on as well.

    Onel Hernandez and Jordan Hugill are on.

    League One update

    A big late goal at the top of the table.

    Aiden McGeady puts Sunderland ahead at home to 10-man Oxford.

    Peterborough and Hull still being held.

    The Black Cats heading second and just a point off the top as things stand.

    Cardiff City 0-1 Nottingham Forest

    Aden Flint so close to heading Cardiff level.

    Deep cross in from the left by substitute Josh Murphy finds the towering centre-back, but he can't hit the target despite being unmarked from just six yards out.

    Almost into stoppage time.

    Wycombe 1-0 Blackburn

    Wycombe almost seal the points!

    Anis Mehmeti with a shot cleared off the line by Barry Douglas.

    Then a shout for a Wycombe penalty.

    Rovers survive and stay in the game and there's still over 10 minutes to play at Adams Park.

    Surely that's three points in the bag now for Bournemouth. What a huge goal for them. This is the business end of the season and anything could happen, but that sees Bournemouth in the play-off places for at least the next few hours.

  6. PENALTY SAVEDpublished at 16:45 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Millwall 1-0 Rotherham

    But Millwall keeper Bartosz Bialkowski keeps out Michael Smith's effort from 12 yards.

    It's well struck and low, but it's too close to the Pole, who gets down to divert the ball away from goal.

    Nightmare for the Millers.

    League Two update

    Points safe for Cambridge as Paul Mullin's second of the day, this from the penalty spot, puts them 2-0 ahead against 10-man Morecambe.

    And Jamie Devitt has a second goal for Barrow and they now lead Newport 2-1!

    What a miserable day for the chasing pack.

  8. PENALTY to Rotherhampublished at 16:43 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Millwall 1-0 Rotherham

    Michael Smith is brought down inside the Millwall box, and the 10 men have a chance to equalise...

    This is a big moment in Rotherham's bid for survival.

  9. Postpublished at 16:43 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Cardff City 0-1 Nottingham Forest

    That Bournemouth goal will not be good news for Cardiff fans as they face the prospect of losing ground on the Cherries.

    Mick McCarthy's side still unable to find a way back level in this game against Forest as we head into the last five minutes.

  10. goal

    GOAL: Bournemouth 3-1 Middlesbroughpublished at 16:40 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Dominic Solanke (83 mins)

    Should be the winner this one for the Cherries.

    Dominic Solanke makes it 3-1 to Bournemouth as he stabs the ball home at the second attempt after his initial run and shot was parried by Marcus Bettinelli.

    He gets to the rebound first and very calmly rolls it low into the open net.

  11. Postpublished at 16:38 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Millwall 1-0 Rotherham

    The 10 men of Rotherham come close to an equaliser, but Michael Ihiekwe can't get on the end of a ball flashed across goal by Michael Smith.

    Preston 0-1 Norwich

    Into the final quarter of an hour at Deepdale, and Preston have caused Norwich a few issues in the second half.

    The Canaries could do with a second goal to make the game safe and avoid a nervy finale.

    Teemu Pukki has just turned the ball past Lilywhites keeper Daniel Iversen, but his effort dropped wide of goal.

    The normally clinical Finn has seen a few chances go begging today.

  13. Postpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Wycombe 0-0 Blackburn

    Blackburn have kicked into gear again and are pressing for an equaliser.

    Darragh Lenihan flicks on a corner and Tom Trybull is there to pull the trigger before the ball is nicked away from him at the last moment.

    Can Wycombe close this out to perhaps launch a great escape?

    League One update

    But only five minutes later Hull also have a penalty!

    And Josh Magennis scores to make it 1-1 at The Alex.

    Crewe 1-1 Hull

    Joe Thompson
    Former Rochdale and Tranmere midfielder on Squad Goals

    He's absolutely rifled it. Hull have got themselves back in it with an emphatic penalty.

    Crewe's lead did not last long as Josh Magennis powers Hull level from the spot.

  16. Postpublished at 16:28 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    League One update

    Hull are behind!

    Crewe win a penalty and Chris Porter has made no mistake.

    That opens the door for Peterborough but they can't break the deadlock against Fleetwood.

    It's also a boon for Sunderland who are now facing 10-man Oxford after Mark Sykes' red card. It's 1-1 in the North-East.

    Ilias Chair (68 mins)

    QPR are really enjoying themselves this afternoon.

    Ilias Chair has had a hand in their first two goals and now the forward gets on the scoresheet himself.

    Marko Marosi has made some good saves this afternoon but Chair's fairly tame shot is bundled into the net by the Sky Blues keeper.

    It's turning into a day to forget for Coventry.

    Watford 1-0 Sheff Wed

    A good opening goes begging for the visitors.

    Wednesday striker Jordan Rhodes can't get his half-volleyed effort on target from close range.

    That was a let-off for the Hornets.

  19. Postpublished at 16:25 British Summer Time 2 April 2021

    Wycombe 0-0 Blackburn

    Half chance for Blackburn to quickly level at Adams Park.

    Joe Rothwell finds Ben Brereton 10 yards out but he snatches at his shot and it drifts harmlessly wide.

    Rovers send on Stewart Downing and Tyrhys Dolan.

    The Middlesbrough defender will want to have done better with that one.
