Blackburn Rovers v Blackpool: Live updates from Ewood Park

Rovers sub John Buckley shoots straight down the throat of Chris Maxwell, who does well to claim.

Ben Brereton Diaz looks down and blames the turf as he shoots so wide it goes out for a throw. That old chestnut.

Double change for Pool as Keshi Anderson and Josh Bowler replace Charlie Kirk and CJ Hamilton.

Not bad options to have off the bench, eh?

Gary Madine almost reaches Kenny Dougall’s curling cross into the six-yard box. This is good pressure from the Seasiders.

Charlie Kirk opts to loft in his free-kick, rather thna use power, but it’s over everyone’s head and out for a goal kick.

Waste.

Sam Gallagher bizarrely wrestles Marvin Ekpiteta to the ground right outside the Blackburn box when he’s not even in possession of the ball. Odd. He’s deservedly booked.

It gives Charlie Kirk the chance to shoot or cross in a great position.

Callum Connolly has a shot which hits the midriff of a Blackburn defender. No penalty says the referee.

Charlie Kirk could shoot himself on the edge of the Rovers box but he unselfishly lays it into the path of Gary Madine, whose effort is blocked.

Blackburn’s first attack of the second-half ends with Ben Brereton Diaz’s shot deflecting behind for a corner.
