    Hull 0-2 Barnsley

    That Reading goal is bad news for Barnsley, as it means they'll still be nine points adrift of safety even if they hold out here.

  5. PENALTY TO READINGpublished at 21:28 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February 2022

    Reading 1-0 Birmingham City

    Onel Hernandez clumsily hauls down Andy Yiadom as he tried to sprint clear into the area and the referee points to the spot.

    Middlesbrough 2-1 West Brom

    Darnell Furlong comes on for West Brom and his first act is to hurl a long throw into the Boro area that causes panic before Andy Carroll eventually smashes it over on the volley.

    The former England man will want that back.

    Bristol City also go close to making to 2-1.

    Deadlock broken at Reading.

    Lucas Joao scores the first goal of the Paul Ince era as he picks up where he left off on Saturday with two against Preston.

    Nice combination between him and John Swift before Joao found the bottom right corner with a neat side-foot finish from outside the penalty area past Neil Etheridge at full stretch.

    Middlesbrough 2-1 West Brom

    Fair play to Chris Wilder here.

    The Boro boss made a double change after 55 minutes and altered his side's shape.

    They've since turned a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead and look good money to go into the top six.

    Louie Barry has his second of night and Jonny Williams has added a fifth as Swindon stroll to victory over Walsall.

    Harrogate have come from behind to lead 2-1 at Bradford, Lewis Page curling in a cracking free-kick from 25-yards.

    Hartlepool have scored twice in five minutes to lead 2-1 at Colchester, Omar Bogle and Isaac Fletcher with the goals.

  11. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 21:18 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February 2022

    Bristol City 1-1 Coventry City

    Coventry pick themselves up and go again after being pegged back at Ashton Gate.

    Ian Maatsen so nearly gets his second to restore the lead but Dan Bentley denies him with a fine save.

    Then Gustavo Hamer's corner is deep and he picks out Dominic Hyam at the back post but his header comes back off the woodwork.

    Kaine Kesler-Hayden has doubled MK Dons' advantage at Charlton, following up from close range after Connor Wickham has seen his effort saved.

    Relegation-haunted Doncaster have gone in front at home to Accrington courtesy of Josh Martin.

    Ciaron Brown has given promotion-chasing Oxford the lead at bottom side Crewe.

    In the 20:00 GMT kick-off George Johnston has broken the deadlock for Bolton at home to Lincoln.

    Hull need something quick if they're to get back in this.

    Sub Tyler Smith forces a decent save from Brad Collins in the Tykes goal.

    GOAL: Middlesbrough 2-1 West Brompublished at 21:13 Greenwich Mean Time 22 February 2022

    Marcus Tavernier (69 mins)

    Comeback complete!

    This is the good stuff.

    Anfernee Dijksteel comes forward from defence down the Boro right and shows some lovely touches to create an opening for Isaiah Jones and his low cross is turned in at the back post by Marcus Tavernier.

    Duncan Watmore had been the intended target for it but missed his kick as it came across.

    He was offside as Tavernier scored but there's no VAR in this league and the goal stands.

    Middlesbrough 1-1 West Brom

    West Brom go on a rare foray forward and win a free-kick in a decent position out wide.

    Alex Mowatt clips in a nice cross that Kyle Bartley charges in at but can't direct on goal.

    Reading 0-0 Birmingham City

    A smart stop from the knees of Reading goalkeeper Karl Hein.

    He denies Jordan James for Birmingham who smashes a low effort from outside the area, through a crowded box but Hein makes the block.

    He's on hand once again soon after to stop Lyle Taylor this with an attempted low effort across goal.

    Preston 0-0 Nott'm Forest

    Ben Whiteman fires wide for the home side.

    I said there'd be goals in this at half-time... Starting to look a little uncertain now.

    Middlesbrough 1-1 West Brom

    The home side have got the bit between their teeth now.

    The Riverside is rocking and so are West Brom.

    Aaron Connolly sees a shot blocked and Andraz Sporar drags the rebound off target.

    Chris Martin (62 mins)

    All square at Ashton Gate!

    The Championship veteran Chris Martin heads the hosts level from a neat off-the-training-ground move from a free-kick.

    Andreas Weimann headed the diagnonal ball back across goal along the six-yard box and Martin was there to nod it home.

    Nice goal this.

    Middlesbrough win the ball 30 yards from their own goal and patiently work the ball forward.

    Riley McGree eventually slides through a lovely pass for Marcus Tavernier in the inside left position and he cuts back for Paddy McNair to slot in from six yards.

    Game on!
