Live updates from Blackpool's Carabao Cup first round clash against Barrow

After a bright few opening minutes, the atmosphere has died down a little.

Both sides are looking to play patient possession football, but there’s been no real goalmouth action so far.

Theo Corbeanu gets into some space down the right only to overhit his cross.

Charlie Patino’s corner is a strange one as it barely seems to leave the floor, but it causes some confusion in the Barrow before the away side eventually clear.

CJ Hamilton wins Blackpool the first corner of the game as his cross from the left is turned behind.

Charlie Patino to take.

15 seconds in and we've had the first Charlie Patino chant. No pressure.

Barrow get tonight’s game underway.

Come on you Pool!
