Update on Jordan Gabriel’s knock

Seasiders come from behind to record an emphatic victory! Is that the first time they’ve scored four this season?

90 - GOAL BLACKPOOL!! (4-1)

Josh Bowler scores for the fifth time in seven games with a well-timed volley. Pool now running away with it. Three minutes have been added on.

86 - GOAL BLACKPOOL!!! (3-1)

Three minutes after coming on, Lavery puts the game to bed for the Seasiders! Smart finish from the Northern Irishman to beat Southwood low down to his right.

John Swift sends a dipping 30-yard free-kick straight into the wall.

Pool still holding on here. Hopefully there will be no late drama again!

Shayne Lavery is Blackpool's second change of the afternoon, replacing the tireless Jerry Yates.

CJ Hamilton fires wide from Josh Bowler’s lay-off. Good chance.

79 - Enforced change

Another injury concern for the Seasiders as Jordan Gabriel hobbles off. Reece James replaces him and Dujon Sterling returns to right-back.

Jordan Gabriel is currently down receiving some treatment. Appears to be his left leg that is the issue.

Tom Ince’s shot is straight into the midriff of Jordan Thorniley. Reading still with the ball though.

Jordan Thorniley fails to clear Tom Ince’s ball in from the right, but thankfully the ball flies straight through to Grimshaw.

Junior Hoilett floats in a dangerous cross in from the left which just evades two of his teammates in the centre.

Hoilett has looked threatening day for the away side.

Michael Morrison heads narrowly wide from a deep Tom Ince free-kick.

Reading have responded well, to their credit.

A shot from Tom Dele Bashiru deflects towards the Blackpool goal, but thankfully it’s straight at Dan Grimshaw. That could have gone anywhere.

Jerry Yates looks to be barged off the ball inside the Reading box, but nothing given.

61 - GOAL BLACKPOOL!!! (2-1)

Madine gives Blackpool the lead!

The striker heads Kenny Dougall’s corner down into the turf where it bounces up into the top corner.
