Huddersfield Town v Blackpool: Live updates
Key Events
- FT: Huddersfield 0-1 Blackpool
- Seasiders looking to get back to winning ways after midweek disappointment
- Ian Poveda makes first start, new signing Callum Wright starts on the bench
- Gary Madine misses out through suspension
5 - Over
Theo Corbeanu drives through the centre before firing over from 25 yards out.
The keeper bizarrely ducks as the ball flies two or three years over the crossbar.
7 - Positive
Theo Corbeanu plays in Dom Thompson down the left but his cross is dealt with by the keeper.
Blackpool have started positively here.
10 - Saved
Sorba Thomas cuts in from the left and drills a low effort towards goal, but Dan Grimshaw is equal to it.
12 - Blocked
The home fans are very anxious.
Jerry Yates is gifted the ball on the edge of the Huddersfield box but his shot is charged down.
19 - Pool should be ahead!
Tom Nicholls passes the ball straight to Jerry Yates, who takes an age to decide what to do with it. In the end, he's caught in two minds and the chance goes to waste.
29 - Pressure
Jack Rudoni glances a header wide of the far post for the home side.
The home side have built up some pressure during the final few minutes, but it’s not been the greatest of games thus far.
32 - New chant
The away end have just serenaded Ian Poveda to the tune of "tequila".
Not much else is going on, to be honest.
35 - Wide
Danny Ward blazes wide after turning smartly on the edge of Blackpool's box.
Seasiders sitting a bit too deep during the last few minutes for my liking.
37 - Save
Michael Appleton throws his bottle of water in the air as Marvin Ekpiteta miscues a clearance straight to Jack Rudoni.
Rudoni lets fly but Dan Grimshaw is equal to his long-range effort, pushing it wide.
