Blackpool v Swansea City - live updates

Key Events

  • FT: Blackpool 1-0 Swansea
  • Seasiders looking for third straight win
  • Jordan Thorniley an injury doubt

We’re back underway

Kenny Dougall gets the game restarted.

Can the Seasiders build on a promising first-half and make sure of the three points?

Seasiders lead at the interval thanks to Gary Madine’s early header, his eighth of the season. Could easily be two or three though.

Away side have offered virtually nothing other than lots of sideways passes.

Two minutes will be added on.

Josh Bowler is sent through on goal by Kevin Stewart but fails to hit the target. Should be 2-0.

Almost a second for Gary Madine but the striker's header is tipped over the bar.

Charlie Kirk the creator again.

A deep free-kick is taken down deliciously by Gary Madine, whose volley is blocked behind for a Blackpool corner.

Gary Madine feeds Charlie Kirk who shifts the ball onto his left foot before shooting straight at the keeper.

The Swansea fans are remaining incredibly patient with their side's performance. It's making for an incredibly dull affair.

A dangerous ball in from the left is flicked over the bar by Marvin Ekpiteta just as Dan Grimshaw was readying himself to punch clear.

Swansea corner.

27 - Counts for little

Swansea have had 76% possession according to the BBC's stats. They've not done anything with it yet.
