    Millwall 1-1 Wigan

    Millwall break as they try to work their second of the afternoon against Wigan.

    Mason Bennett scuffs a low ball into the box which is eventually met by Billy Mitchell who tries a low drive from the 18-yard line but he sends it straight into the hands of Jamie Jones.

    Big goal at the foot of the table. Warren O'Hora has produced an acrobatic finish to turn in a Jack Turner header and put MK Dons 1-0 to the good against Fleetwood.

    A goal which could take the basement-boys up to third-bottom and drag the visitors within three points of the relegation zone themselves.

    Middlesbrough 1-1 Luton

    Tom Lockyer has a good chance for the away side as he makes connection with a volley from a free-kick at the back post but he sends his effort past the post.

    The defender might think he should have done better.

    Millwall 1-1 Wigan

    Jamie Jones had a fine first half between the sticks for Wigan and he's shown his worth once more after the restart.

    He makes the save to deny Zian Flemming who had sent a powerful free-kick towards goal.

    Late first-half drama at Gander Green Lane as Sutton took the lead against Colchester through a Rob Milsom penalty deep into time added on to added time.

    Colchester are the only team in the bottom six in action but remain second-bottom, ahead of Gillingham on goal difference alone, following Hartlepool's win against Crawley on Friday night.

    We're getting back under way in the second half of our 15:00 GMT kick-offs.

    Forest Green celebrateImage source, Rex Features
    • Brentford loanee Myles Peart-Harris has made himself a cult hero after getting the late winner for Forest Green in the local derby against Cheltenham. Town were unbeaten in five but it's Rovers who claim the points to make it back-to-back wins and edge within a point of a couple of sides just outside the drop-zone.
    • Victor Adeboyejo's 12th goal of the season salvaged a point for Burton in their local derby at home to Derby, who led for most of the match following James Collins' early header. The Brewers are within five points of safety while Derby remain on the fringes of the play-offs.

    Reading 1-0 Coventry

    The Royals hold on for a victory which pushes them up to eighth, a point outside the play-off places.

    Amadou Mbengue's second-half strike was the difference.

    Coventry had won four in a row without conceding before the World Cup break but they couldn't recapture that form today.

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:54 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2022

    Reading 1-0 Coventry

    He's currently the match-winner but Amadou Mbengue is also in the referee's notebook under cautions as well now.

    There will be six added minutes for the Royals to hang on for those precious points.

    Billy SharpImage source, Rex Features
    • Sheffield United striker Billy Sharp scores his first goal since March to put the home side in front against bottom side Huddersfield. The Blades need a two-goal win to go top of the table.
    • Norwich striker Teemu Pukki scores in the opening 20 seconds and they lead 1-0 at Swansea.
    • Wigan and Luton took the lead away at Millwall and Middlesbrough respectively in their first games under new managers but the home side have fought back to tie it up at 1-1 in both.
    • Cardiff took an early lead at Stoke but the home side hit back with two goals of their own and lead 2-1 at the break.

    Brendan Kiernan’s deflected header early-on has Grimsby 1-0 ahead against Tranmere at Blundell Park.

    That is the only goal in the division today with Newport v Doncaster; Stevenage v Mansfield and Swindon v AFC Wimbledon all goalless at the break.

    They're still playing between Sutton and Colchester, but no goals in that one either.

    Well, there is not much to report after the opening 45 minutes of the 15:00 GMT kick-offs in League One. There has not been a single goal in any of the five matches.

    Plymouth and Sheffield Wednesday remain second and third while it's as you were at the bottom too.

    Reading 1-0 Coventry

    Approaching the final stages of this 14:00 GMT kick-off and Reading's lead is still intact.

    They've had to weather the Sky Blues storm since taking the lead but Paul Ince's men are standing firm.

    Blackpool 0-0 Birmingham

    On the verge of half-time, Birmingham have the ball in the net through Maxime Colin.

    But it won't count as the offside flag goes up.

  15. CLOSE!published at 15:47 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2022

    Swansea 0-1 Norwich

    Josh Sargent is inches away from doubling Norwich's lead.

    Gabriel Sara plays a dangerous ball across the box and the American, returning from World Cup duty, slides in but can't quite get a touch on it.

    Almost half-time.

    GOAL: Millwall 1-1 Wiganpublished at 15:42 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2022

    Zian Flemming (40 mins)

    Cracking finish, this.

    Millwall level it up again just before half-time and it comes via a flowing set of passes and, after the ball is worked into the box, Zian Flemming strikes home from the edge of the Wigan box after Tom Bradshaw chests down Danny McNamara's cross.

    Victor Adeboyejo has headed his 12th of the season and Burton are back on level terms at home to Derby with around 10 minutes to play.

    The Rams are unbeaten in six in the league, the Brewers are winless in five... will there be a decider in the closing stages?

  18. goal

    GOAL: Middlesbrough 1-1 Lutonpublished at 15:40 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2022

    Chuba Akpom (38 mins)

    Well, that lead was short-lived!

    Chuba Akpom heads home his ninth goal of the season from a Ryan Giles cross

    Game on!

    Swansea 0-1 Norwich

    Highly-entertaining stuff in south Wales and both teams are looking dangerous on the attack.

    Joel Piroe has gone close for the Swans and an excellent cover tackle by Ben Cabango has prevented Gabriel Sara from doubling the Canaries' advantage.

    More goals in this one!

    The deadlock has finally been broken in the Gloucestershire derby with 15 minutes remaining... and it's Forest Green who lead Cheltenham.

    Brentford loanee Myles Peart-Harris is the home hero, turning in the set-piece at the far post.
