    Blackpool 2-3 Bristol City

    Blackpool should have got an equaliser, here, but Callum Connolly's shot goes wide.

    The home side are really pushing on here in this final few minutes of the normal 90.

    Time for some late goals?

    GOAL: Middlesbrough 2-1 Swansea Citypublished at 16:37 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    Joel Piroe (79 mins)

    Joel Piroe pulls one back from the penalty spot for Swansea after the referee seemed to adjudge Darragh Lenihan handled the ball.

    It looks like we could be in for a nervous final 10 minutes at the Riverside now.

    Huddersfield 2-2 West Brom

    Huddersfield come close to retaking the lead as Sorba Thomas' corner causes all sorts of problems.

    It's eventually blasted away to safety by an Albion defender.

    Albert Adomah (70 mins)

    The R's have gone in front for the third time this afternoon.

    Substitute Uncle Albert Adomah has smashed home after Kenneth Paal had pulled the ball back into a crowded penalty area.

    Can Rangers see this one out from here?

    The Rotherham skipper has done it again!

    Dan Barlaser makes up for his penalty miss - crossing for veteran centre-back Richard Wood to rise and head home.

    The Millers are set to remain unbeaten.

    George Miller has scored from the spot to put Doncaster in front at Northampton.

    Rochdale have drawn level at home to Crawley through Tyrese Sinclair.

    Coventry not out of this one yet!

    Matt Godden scores his second of the day for the away side from close range.

    GOAL: Blackpool 2-3 Bristol Citypublished at 16:31 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    Marvin Ekpiteta og (72 mins)

    Bristol City have turned the game on its head!

    For the first time this afternoon the Robins have taken the lead and its through an own goal by Marvin Ekpiteta, who you have to feel slightly for.

    Kal Naismith tries to catch Daniel Grimshaw out in goal as he whips in a free-kick but Daniel Grimshaw gets something on it and the ball falls back into the box. Nahki Wells then sees a header hit the cross bar but when the ball comes back out a second time, it gets deflected back into the net off Ekpiteta.

    If Bristol City can hold out now, this will be the first time they've won three consecutive league matches since November 2020.

    It's not a good day for Forest Green now 5-0 down against Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough and this time it's a Dominic Bernard own goal.

    Conor Grant and Matthew Dennis have extended MK Dons lead to four at Morecambe.

    Sam Smith has his second of the day, drawing Cambridge level at home to Burton.

    The deadlock has been broken in the A40 derby Taylor Perry giving Cheltenham the lead at home to Oxford, although Cameron Brannagan has since equalised for The U's.

    They might be down to 10 but Josh Knight has given Peterborough the lead at Derby and heading top as it stands.

    Huddersfield 2-2 West Brom

    West Brom are looking to complete the comeback from 2-0 down.

    Former Huddersfield man Karlan Grant forces a decent save from Lee Nicholls in the home goal.

  12. MISSED PENALTY (Rotherham)published at 16:24 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    Rotherham 1-0 Birmingham

    All these goals raining in across the Championship this afternoon, but Rotherham fail to add to that tally from 12 yards.

    After Chiedozie Ogbene is pulled back in the box Daniel Barlaser steps up but his low penalty is too central and is saved by Birmingham keeper John Ruddy.

    What a substitution from Nigel Pearson!

    Antoine Semenyo had been on the pitch for all of about 20 seconds and with his first touch of the match fires his side back level.

    Semenyo only made his first appearance of the season midweek after returning from injury and also scored from the bench in the Carabao Cup win over Wycombe.

    Quite a minutes to goals ratio he's racking up.

    Millwall 0-1 Reading

    Remember Rading ended last season in a scrap for survival, but if they can hold out and take all three points at The Den this afternoon they are set to go top of the Championship table.

    Jeff Hendrick has the best chance of the second half so far to put his side 2-0 up, but his effort goes straight at the goalkeeper.

    What an impact this guy has had!

    Colombia international Oscar Estupinan joined Hull City in the summer as one of a raft of new signings and he now has seven goals from six appearances.

    He completes his hat-trick with another finish from close in.

    I think his three goals today have come from a total of about 10 yards out.

    West Brom battle back from 2-0 down!

    Jed Wallace has his second of the day with a great volley from a cute John Swift pass.

    GOAL: Watford 2-2 QPRpublished at 16:15 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    Joao Pedro (50 mins)

    Bit of a contentious one this.

    Joao Pedro latches onto a Yaser Asprilla through-ball and battles past Rob Dickie before firing a low effort past Seny Dieng.

    The visitors are not happy and believe that Dickie was fouled, however the goal stands and we're all level.

  18. goal

    GOAL: Blackpool 2-1 Bristol Citypublished at 16:15 British Summer Time 27 August 2022

    Jerry Yates (55 mins)

    Set pieces were a major Achilles heel for Bristol City defensively last season and it's a trend that seems to be continuing.

    It's a straightforward Blackpool corner that should have been easily dealt with, but the ball falls to Jerry Yates who puts it in the net from close range.

    Burnley re-assert their two-goal lead!

    Southampton loanee Nathan Tella takes his tally to three goals in three appearances for the Clarets.

    He races in and keeps his composure to slot home.
