  1. Exeter closing on promotionpublished at 21:26 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Exeter City 2-1 Barrow

    You know when you shake a bottle of fizzy pop and eventually turn the cap and get doused in drink - that's the atmosphere here at St James Park.

    Exeter have been poor in this second half, but one moment of class might've sealed it.

    Josh Key's cross from the right evaded everyone bar top scorer and homegrown hero Matt Jay, and the Exeter skipper controlled brilliantly before blasting home right-footed.

    It could well be a busy night in Exeter's pubs tonight.

  2. PENALTY TO BOURNEMOUTHpublished at 21:25 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Swansea 3-1 Bournemouth

    DRAMA!

    Bournemouth win a penalty after Swansea are judged to have handballed in the box!

    Can they mount a stunning comeback?!

  3. 'Substitute March has taken his chance'published at 21:25 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Swindon Town 2-1 Forest Green Rovers

    We've got an interesting final 20 minutes on our hands here, as that Josh March goal stunned the home fans into silence for a second.

    With Swindon down to 10 men the pressure has been building and it was inevitable that gaps would open up in their defence.

    Jonny Williams lost the ball on the edge of the box, and while Lewis Ward did well to palm away Ebou Adams' shot, substitute March didn't miss the rebound.

    March hasn't had a huge amount of game time this season, with Jamille Matt and Matty Stevens being so on fire for so long. But he's taken his chance tonight when it fell to him.

    Fulham 0-1 Nottm Forest

    A blow for Nottingham Forest as Jack Colback comes off injured.

    They still lead Fulham and the push for automatic promotion is still well and truly on, if they can hold out for the win.

    Game on?

    Kieffer Moore gets Bournemouth back in it. The former Cardiff striker's back from injury and he's on the scoresheet.

    It comes via a Bournemouth corner and the Wales international heads in from the centre of the box.

    Fulham 0-1 Nottm Forest

    Joe Worrall puts in a last-ditch clearance to thwart Aleksandar Mitrovic from turning in Harry Wilson's delivery.

    Just a goal will give Fulham the Championship title as it stands.

    HAT-TRICK!!!!!

    Straight from the kick-off and Wednesday are in front as Lee Gregory fires into the bottom corner from 20 yards to complete his hat-trick. Great striking, but Fleetwood will be furious with themselves at how they lost the ball.

    Carnage in the away end at Highbury!

    One back for Forest Green against ten-man Swindon where Josh March has poached one.

  11. Exeter throw forwards onpublished at 21:17 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Exeter City 1-1 Barrow

    Brent Pilnick
    BBC Sport at St James Park

    Exeter City manager Matt Taylor is going for it.

    He's taken off defender Cheick Diabate and goalscorer Kieran Phillips and brought on experienced striker Padraig Amond and big summer signing Sam Nombe.

    It's a bit of a gamble with Nombe - he's not played in more than a month after a recurrence of a hamstring injury and has not scored since December.

  12. goal

    GOAL: Barnsley 0-2 Blackpoolpublished at 21:15 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Oliver Casey (66 mins)

    Blackpool double their lead against Barnsley and it comes thanks to Oliver Casey.

    He works onto Marvin Ekpiteta's header to turn in from close range.

    That's Casey's first senior career goal.

    Swansea 3-0 Bournemouth

    This how things look at the top of the Championship table right now.

    Bournemouth will be looking over their shoulders at Nottingham Forest given it'll take a miracle if they are to beat Swansea, now.

    Would you believe it? George Hirst has levelled it for Portsmouth with his second goal in three minutes!

    A fantastic curling effort from Hirst from the edge of the box has made it 2-2 and the Pompey chimes can be heard around Fratton Park.

    A draw is OK for Wigan, but those promotion nerves will be jangling now.

    George Hirst (62 mins)

    Wigan's promotion looked done and dusted but Portsmouth have halved the deficit.

    Good work down the right from Marcus Harness and George Hirst tucks it into the bottom corner from about ten yards.

    Remember, a draw will be enough for the Latics tonight to go up.

    Fulham 0-1 Nottm Forest

    Fulham are being confined to long-range shots against Nottingham Forest at the minute.

    Fabio Carvalho tries his luck from distance but Brice Samba makes the save.

  17. Atmosphere 'fraught' after Swindon red cardpublished at 21:09 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Swindon Town 2-0 Forest Green Rovers

    Sophie Hurcom
    BBC West Sport at the County Ground

    The atmosphere is getting a bit fraught, with Swindon down to 10 men after Ellis Iandolo was sent off for his second yellow card.

    There was a bit of a scuffle and coming together, after which all the players gathered round the referee for a quite a while before he dipped into his pocket. Iandolo was eventually sent off, while Jonny Williams also went into his book.

    Every decision from the referee is getting a pretty loud reaction from now, and every time Forest Green get the ball and move towards the Swindon goal the home fans aren't happy.

    We could be in for a pretty tense final half hour here.

  18. Fulham's Christie strikes for Swanspublished at 21:07 British Summer Time 26 April 2022

    Swansea 3-0 Bournemouth

    Well, well, well.

    Bournemouth have dominated the opening stages of the second half, knocking at the door and missing a golden chance as Jaidon Anthony's drive was saved.

    Yet Swansea now lead 3-0 thanks to a slick counter-attack goal, with Michael Obafemi feeding Cyrus Christie - who is on loan to Fulham - to smash home at the near post.

    It would be some comeback from Bournemouth from here, although they still look threatening.

    Outstanding. Swansea are 3-0 up now against Bournemouth.

    It comes via a flowing counter attack from their own half, with Michael Obafemi teeing up Cyrus Christie in the box and he finishes well from a tight angle.

    This is not going well for the Cherries.

    Matty Virtue tries his luck as Blackpool look to double their lead against Barnsley.

    However Jack Walton does well to turn his effort away.
