    GOAL: Blackpool 1-1 Millwallpublished at 36 mins

    Jerry Yates pen

    Blackpool striker Jerry Yates has barely been in the game but makes no mistake from the spot.

    He slides the ball down the middle to even things up with his 14th league goal of the season.

    Yates then has an exchange of words with Millwall keeper George Long before celebrating.

    Blackpool are back in the game - but still need a win to keep any realistic hopes of Championship survival alive.

    You know those hushed moments when your side have a free-kick and it could really change the game?

    The anticipation, the trepidation… well Blackpool’s attempt at getting a shot on goal really sums up the deflated feeling that has now engulfed the home fans.

    They’ve gone with a short ball from the right to the edge of the box.

    Is anybody there for it? No, and it’s gobbled up. Blackpool boss Stephen Dobbie was not amused.

    But both he and Curtis Nelson are cleared to play on.

    Blackpool 0-1 Millwall

    So close to 2-0!

    Duncan Watmore receives the ball inside the Blackpool box, turns and then unleashes a fierce right-footed shot.

    It crashes off the left-hand upright and behind for a goal kick.

    Maybe Daniel Grimshaw had it covered... but he looked worried.

    Millwall forward Zian Flemming goes into the book for a push on Andy Lyons on halfway.

    Blackpool 0-1 Millwall

    Blackpool look to get going down their left, but CJ Hamilton is flagged offside.

    At least they have top scorer Jerry Yates back this evening, but he has had virtually no service so far.

    Millwall have quietened down the home crowd at Bloomfield Road.

    The Tangerines really need to do something in the final third to get their fans going.

    Blackpool 0-1 Millwall

    Since that early charge-down of a clearance, Blackpool have barely been in the Millwall half.

    CJ Hamilton gets on the ball on the left but his cross is deflected into the arms of Lions keeper George Long.

    Long then quickly mounts a counter-attack with a long kick upfield to Tom Bradshaw, but the striker loses his footing and can't get his effort on target.

    Route one stuff from the visitors.

  19. CLOSE!published at 15 mins

    Blackpool 0-1 Millwall

    Lewis Fiorini dives into a challenge on Callum Styles and gives the Lions a free-kick just outside the corner of the box on the left.

    The visitors waste the set piece but then keep up the pressure with a quick throw-in.

    The ball breaks to Tom Bradshaw in the box and he sends a left-footed snap-shot across goal and narrowly wide of the right-hand upright.

    A real scare for Blackpool. Inches to the left and that would have been 2-0.

    Millwall get the game going again after Morgan Rogers gets some attention from the medical staff.

    Will that breather have allowed Blackpool to regroup and settle down after a nervous start?
