    Dan Agyei's second penalty of the day has sent Crewe into a two-goal lead against Barrow.

    Elsewhere, leaders Leyton Orient are two goals up at Moor Lane after George Moncur found the net against Salford City.

    Sheffield Wednesday are ahead away at Oxford United and that lead has come in style.

    Barry Bannan turns and beats his marker before curling home from the edge of the box.

    That's a potentially huge goal in the Owls' promotion hopes.

    Blackburn 0-1 Norwich

    Norwich's Max Aarons has Blackburn goalkeeper Aynsley Pears scrambling to his left to make a crucial save.

    With the Canaries crowded out of the area, Aarons did well with a low shot from outside the box there. In fact, it may even have cracked the post on the way out.

    Yaser Asprilla (33 mins)

    Breakthrough at Vicarage Road and what a way to do it.

    Watford move the ball across from left to right, edging closer to the Terriers' 18-yard box where Yaser Asprilla drills a left-footed shot into the bottom corner.

    A first goal of the season for the teenager and not a bad way to break your duck.

    Play-off chasing Peterborough are ahead at Shrewsbury.

    Jonson Clarke-Harris sends them in front from the spot after Ephron Mason-Clark was brought down in the box.

    The fight against the drop in League One looks like it's hotting up as Jack Stephens' own goal gives Accrington the lead against Port Vale.

    More work for Rangers keeper Seny Dieng to do as he keeps out Jordan Storey's header from a Robbie Brady corner.

    Blackpool 0-1 Cardiff City

    Cardiff have lost five of their last six on the road but almost doubled their lead inside half-an-hour at Bloomfield Road.

    Blackpool keeper Chris Maxwell tips away a powerful low effort from Cedric Kipre. Jadon Philogene then beats two men, but his shot deflects wide.

    It's been all Cardiff since they went ahead.

    League Two leaders Leyton Orient lead Salford City courtesy of Ruel Sotiriou.

    Certainly a moment to savour for Orient boss Richie Wellens against his former club.

    At the other end of the table, Rochdale are a goal down against Walsall after Jamille Matt's opener. Dale's remote hopes of survival will look even bleaker should the Saddlers win today.

    Blackburn 0-1 Norwich

    So nearly an equaliser for Blackburn!

    After Norwich fail to properly clear a dangerous ball from Lewis Travis, Sammie Szmodics latches onto the loose ball but has his goal-bound effort blocked.

    Reading are pegged back by Birmingham with a classic striker's header.

    Reda Khadra pings in a ball from the left and Lukas Jutkiewicz rises to powerfully head in to the top left-hand corner from the penalty spot.

    There was no way Royals keeper Joe Lumley could keep that one out. An absolute peach of a header.

    After the Blades break up the field at pace, Latics defender Tendayi Darikwa throws himself into a decisive block when James McAtee was about to drop the hammer on a shot.

    Watford 0-0 Huddersfield Town

    No saves of note yet at Vicarage Road.

    Ismael Koné curls one from range for the Hornets which flies over the bar, but defender Ryan Porteous is already nursing a yellow card after a cynical hack on Jack Rudoni.

    Earlier, Daniel Bachmann made a comfortable stop from Danny Ward.
