    Portsmouth 0-1 Accrington

    Ryan Williams is off, a quiet afternoon for the Pompey playmaker, and Charlie Daniels is on.

    John Marquis wins his side a throw high up the pitch but Accrington don't look ruffled.

    Tom Scully clears but Pompey work it again, Cameron Burgess getting to Daniels' cut-back.

    Jordy Hiwula wins a corner for the hosts after his surge is halted.

    League One final day

    An important goal for Blackpool as substitute Ellis Simms volleys in to give his side the lead against Bristol Rovers, helping them stay in third place in the table.

    Elsewhere, Fleetwood were 3-0 down at Ipswich, but they have got a goal back thanks to Wes Burns calmly slotting the ball into the far corner after a burst of pace to get away from the home team's defence.

    Jacob Greaves own goal (75 mins)

    Charlton will end the season on a bright note as it stands, but it will likely be in vain as Oxford lead and have a superior goal difference.

    Jacob Greaves could not get out of the way after Matt Ingram turned a Liam Millar cross onto him and in.

    The Addicks can only pray for a Burton miracle.

    Portsmouth 0-1 Accrington

    Portsmouth are getting into the Accrington third of the field but just can't make that ball stick when they do.

    Part of that is down to the defensive shape of the Stanley side, they all drop in, forming a formidable barrier.

    This is a lesson in how to maintain a lead. Brilliantly executed so far.

    Portsmouth 0-1 Accrington

    Lee Brown motors down the left for Portsmouth and almost got Ronan Curtis into the box with a curling pass but Michael Nottingham just steps across like a bouncer. "Not today, mate."

    Accrington continue to frustrate.

    League One final day

    There have been no goals in the games involving Blackpool, Sunderland or Lincoln, the three sides that had already guaranteed themselves a play-off spot coming into today.

    A winning goal for Lincoln against Wimbledon would move them into third place and give them a home tie for the second leg of their play-off semi-final as it stands.

    Perhaps they are all holding something back for the games to come?

    Oxford 3-0 Burton

    Danny Rowe's cross-shot brushes the Oxford crossbar as Burton push forward.

    Doesn't have the dip though to catch out Jack Stevens in the Oxford net.

    Ronan Curtis protests to the refereeImage source, Rex Features

    Ben Barclay clips Ronan Curtis and is penalised. Curtis turns to referee Sam Purkiss and gestures about that not being the first time he's taken a foul.

    Portsmouth are agitated, they still can't find a way past Toby Savin, and time's ticking down.

    It's still Oxford's place if it stays like this.

    Two goals are needed.

    Portsmouth 0-1 Accrington

    Really impressed with Accrington's big defender Michael Nottingham.

    He's big, strong, decent pace, good in the air. He's done a good job keeping Pompey at bay so far.

    League One final day

    There have been three goals in four minutes in the game between Wigan and Swindon.

    Just moments after Will Keane's close-range finish from Zach Clough's square ball, Scott Twine scored a free-kick to get the away side back in the game at 2-1.

    But an immediate response saw Clough get his name on the scoresheet after prodding home Keane's goalbound volley.

    It means five fixtures now have at least three goals in League One.

    Ben Barclay throws himself in the way of a John Marquis shot on the edge of the box for Accrington, as Portsmouth again threaten.

    Had to make the block because it opened up for him.

    Then another key foot in stops Marquis in the box as he fashions half a yard.

    Portsmouth continue to threaten.

    Harvey White joins George Byers in the book, two subs, two bookings. Just lopped down Tom Scully as he was scampering away.

    Portsmouth 0-1 Accrington

    George Byers throws a few Michael Flatley shapes on the edge of the Accrington box to work himself some space and then fires a low shot toward goal which prompts a good save from goalkeeper Toby Savin.

    Byers has added something. Including a yellow card for a crude challenge on David Morgan in midfield. Just as I was typing his praise. Ha.

    Chuks Aneke is on for Charlton. Result might be academic anyway but they're going for it. Conor Washington makes way.

    Stephen Pickard: Looks like Accrington are a bogey team for PFC. Goes to show how important it is to be in good form at times like this - Oxford are, and Pompey aren’t.

    League One final day

    Two goals in quick succession have put already-relegated Rochdale 2-0 up at MK Dons.

    First, Aaron Morley found the back of the net with a free-kick, before Jimmy Keohane's deflected strike doubled the away side's advantage.

    Another relegated team, Swindon, are not enjoying as good an afternoon Will Keane has tucked the ball into the bottom corner to put Wigan 2-0 up.

    George Byers, Harvey White and Jordy Hiwula all coming on for Portsmouth it seems.

    Paul Downing, Ben Close and Callum Johnson are off.

    Bit of a reshuffle. Hiwula should add some zip.

    Tame cross from Marcus Harness, right into the palms of Toby Savin.

    I was looking at that game wondering what if Burton got a goal back. But Oxford have got a third.

    Oxford are heading into the play-offs as it stands, with Portsmouth still behind.

    Oxford are certainly keeping to their side of the bargain, as Elliot Lee scores from a free-kick.

    In all honesty, it was a fairly tame daisycutter which goalkeeper Dillon Barnes got all wrong, fumbling it onto the post and in.

    But that's a big game-killer goal and a big boost to the goal difference too.
