Stoke win it 1-0.

Very harsh on Pool. A draw would have been the right result.

There will be five minutes of time added on. Can Pool salvage something?

They’ll have to do so with 10 men because Luke Garbutt has hobbled off.

Gary Madine goes to ground in the Stoke box as he tangles with a couple of Stoke men. Nothing doing though.

Josh Bowler has made a real impact since coming on, committing men and taking the ball into opposition territory.

Luke Garbutt, meanwhile, is down injured. Pool have made all three changes, remember...

Josh Bowler is on for Demetri Mitchell.

79 - GOAL STOKE (0-1)

Steven Fletcher gives the away side the lead.

The striker knew very little about it, the ball ricocheting off his knee after a Stoke man had the post from a free-kick.

So unfortunate.

Neil Critchley is ordering his troops to get higher up the pitch as Stoke enjoy a spell of possession.

Josh Bowler, meanwhile, is ready to come on.

One aerial challenge, one header won. It’s just what Gary Madine does.

Hopefully he can use it to good effect in the dying stages.

Gary Madine is on for Jerry Yates, who has been quiet in the second-half.

66 - This could go either way

The game is on a real knife edge here.

Stoke enjoyed a real spell of pressure after half-time, but it looks like Pool have seen off the worse of that. The hosts aren’t creating as much as they were in the opening half though, so the points are certainly up for grabs.
