HALF TIME
A half of nothing-ness. Very pedestrian. No chances to speak of. All very comfortable for the League Two side.
Shock on the cards here if the Seasiders don’t show a bit of urgency.
45 - Needless
Dom Thompson concedes a needless free-kick on the stroke of half-time, giving Barrow a chance to swing a cross into the box.
He’s not the only one, but Thompson has endured a poor 45 minutes.
41 - Booking
Barrow’s Josh Gordon is shown a yellow card for leaving it late on Callum Connolly.
The forward can have no complaints with that one.
37 - Defending
Marvin Ekpiteta does well to make a vital headed clearance as Ben Whitfield’s right-wing cross almost picks out Josh Gordon in the six-yard box.
21 - Corner
After some patient build-up play, Theo Corbeanu wins Blackpool a corner down the right.
It’s not been a sterling display so far from the Seasiders, but they’re the side on top.
17 - Danger
Barrow swing in a cross from the left which causes a bit of panic in Blackpool’s six-yard box, but thankfully the ball bounces kindly for Chris Maxwell.
