    Watford 0-0 Crawley

    It just won't go in for Watford!

    Luca Kjerrumgaard finds space once again and his shot bounces off the post.

    Crawley relieved...Alessio Dionisi not so much.

  3. CLOSE!published at 16:26 BST 8 August

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Burnley are so, so close to taking the lead.

    The Clarets take a quick free-kick and Zian Flemming drives low and hard towards the far corner from the right but it grazes just wide of the post.

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Paul Parker
    Ex-QPR and Manchester United defender on BBC Radio London

    It's just gone a little bit flat which suits West Ham with the position they're in.

    It doesn't suit Pompey.

  5. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:24 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Leicester make changes for the final half-an-hour, bringing on new signings Tommy Watson and Wes Burns for Stephy Mavididi and William Alves.

    Northampton make a defensive change, with Janoi Donacien coming off for Joe Wormleighton. They also swap out Elliot List for Matthew Warhurst.

    Derby 1-2 Lincoln

    Derby striker Carlton Morris attempts an acrobatic effort to try and volley home from Max Johnston's cross from the right but he can't generate the power or direction needed.

    The Rams are stepping things up though and are on top at the moment.

    GOAL: Cardiff 2-2 Swindonpublished at 16:22 BST 8 August

    Paul Glatzel (62 mins)

    Swindon are not going lightly.

    A wonderful cross from Wigan loanee Joseph Hungbo finds Paul Glatzel at the back stick who turns the ball home from close range!

    This goal is all about the assist - 2-2!

  8. RED CARD FOR BOLTONpublished at 16:22 BST 8 August

    Sheff Wed 0-0 Bolton

    Bolton's Xavier Simons is surrounded by Sheffield Wednesday players who are all angryImage source, Shutterstock

    Big opportunity for Sheffield Wednesday now as Xavier Simons is dismissed for violent conduct.

    He brings down Harry Gray with a punch in the gut and his attitude afterwards is not much better to see him taking a walk up the tunnel to calm down.

    Silly.

  9. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:21 BST 8 August

    Watford 0-0 Crawley

    Crikey, it seems Crawley aren't settling for a draw.

    They make a like-for-like change, bringing on striker, and new loan signing, Oluwalopemiwa Aderju for Gianmarco Di Biase.

  10. CLOSE!published at 16:19 BST 8 August

    Derby 1-2 Lincoln

    Carlton Morris almost draws Derby level.

    Bobby Clark skips across the box and lays it off to Morris on the left. Morris takes a tocuh inside and curls towards the far corner but Deji Elerewe is back near the goalline for Lincoln to make a vital clearance.

  11. West Ham have clicked into gearpublished at 16:19 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Dan George
    BBC Sport at the London Stadium

    West Ham have really turned it on since their first goal and Portsmouth look a little shocked out there at the moment.

    It's like the Hammers needed a goal to get themseleves going and have now really clicked into gear.

    West Ham are very much like England - we don’t seem to start playing until we’re a goal down.

    EFL Cup first-round ties

    A few goals since the break to keep you up to date with.

    Shrewsbury Town now lead at Salford City through Josh Davison's strike two minutes after half-time.

    Doncaster did lead Stockport via Alfie May's close range finish but were immediately pegged back through Kyle Wootton's goal less than 60 seconds later to make the score 1-1 at Edgeley Park.

    Watford 0-0 Crawley

    Amin Nabizada nearly makes an instant impact!

    He cuts the ball back into the path of Iker Bravo, but his shot sails wide off Vito Mannone's net.

    Crawley are hanging on, but they've got to survive another half-an-hour.

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Guy Whittingham
    Former Portsmouth manager on BBC Radio Solent

    That's the quality that West Ham have got. You might get away with those in the Championship but certainly not against a team that's still full of Premier League players.

  17. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:17 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    A rash challenge from Edson Alvarez on Portsmouth's Zak Swanson earns the West Ham midfielder a warning.

    Bad one, that. Swanson needs to walk off the sting.

  18. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:15 BST 8 August

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Burnley want a penalty as Marcus Edwards has his heels clipped by Callum Roberts but it's just outside the box on the right.

    Edwards flashes hard to the far post but James Belshaw scampers across to claw it away and out for a corner to the hosts.

  19. 'A good header by Castellanos'published at 16:15 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Paul Parker
    Ex-QPR and Manchester United defender on BBC Radio London

    Valentín Castellanos has got himself into a great area - in between two centre-halves to score a good header.

    GOAL: West Ham 3-1 Portsmouthpublished at 16:13 BST 8 August

    Valentin Castellanos (50 mins)

    The rust has been shed.

    Jarrod Bowen is a class above as he puts in a great cross to catch the head of Valentin Castellanos.

    That duo is going to frightening in the Championship this season and Pompey are the first to feel the chill.
