Phil Billing then curls over from a similar position to Josh Bowler’s goal.

Josh Bowler’s dangerous low cross somehow evades everyone in the six-yard box. Blackpool’s wingers are causing havoc again.

Good hands from Dan Grimshaw to claim Dominic Solanke’s dangerous low effort, which skipped dangerously off the wet turf.

We’re back underway

Callum Connolly gets the second-half started.

Big 45 minutes to come...

Bloomfield Road is rocking.

Two minutes have been added on at the end of the half.

40 - Bloomfield Road is rocking

Josh Bowler is set free down the right and delivers a dangerous ball into Jerry Yates at the near post, but the Cherries just scramble the ball behind.

37 - GOAL BLACKPOOL!!! (1-0)

Oh my days. What a goal that is.

Bowler gives Blackpool the lead out of absolutely nothing, thundering the ball into the top corner from range. Keeper had no chance.

Sublime.

A ball in from the left loops off the thigh of Marvin Ekpiteta towards the Blackpool goal, but thankfully Grimshaw is there to claim.
