Cheltenham v Blackpool FA Youth Cup - live updates

Key Events

  • FT: Cheltenham 1-3 Blackpool
  • Young Seasiders bidding to reach last 16 of the FA Youth Cup

45 minutes for the U19s to hold on with 10 men. Cheltenham have had the odd moment but otherwise Blackpool have been in total control.

Dannen Francis the standout performer so far with a goal and an assist.

Now Joe Strawn is booked for kicking the ball away.

This referee isn’t making himself too popular with the Blackpool players.

There will be three minutes of time added on at the end of the first-half.

Jake Moore gets good whip on his free-kick but it goes just wide. Decent effort.

Blackpool are awarded a free-kick in a shooting position around 25 yards out in a central position.

Jake Moore stands over it.

39 - RED CARD BLACKPOOL

The Seasiders are reduced to 10 men as Tayt Trusty is shown a straight red for a late challenge.

Joe Strawn gets into a good position down the right channel before sending a low shot hurtling towards goal, but the Cheltenham keeper is equal to it.

34 - Defensive work

Dannen Francis does well at the other end of the pitch, in Blackpool’s box, to intercept a dangerous pass.

Pool are controlling this but Cheltenham are having the odd moment here and there.

Tayt Trusty, who has been in imposing form in the middle of the park for Blackpool, roams forward before seeing a low shot well saved.

Not sure if that was a shot or a cross, but Dannen Francis has just curled right after cutting in from the left flank.

The winger has looked so dangerous so far.
