    GOAL: Burton 1-1 Blackburnpublished at 16:41 BST 8 August

    Andri Gudjohnsen (81 mins)

    An Ice-cool finish from the Icelander.

    Todd Cantwell is at the heart of things and his cross is met by Andri Gudjohnsen who nods home from close range to level the scores.

  2. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:40 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Lots of jeers for Portsmouth native James Ward-Prowse as he comes on for West Ham.

    The 31-year-old spent 12 years at Pompey's rivals Southampton.

    He comes on alongside El Hadji Malick Diouf as the hurting Mo Kante and Edson Alvarez depart.

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Burnley haven't won a competitive game of football since 11 February when they beat Crystal Palace 3-2 at Selhurst Park in the Premier League.

    Will they end their 178-day wait for a victory here? They've got about 10 minutes plus stoppages to do so, or penalties await.

    Preston 0-1 Huddersfield

    We're almost at the 80th minute mark at Goodison Park, and it doesn't seem Preston are ready to throw in the towel just yet.

  5. goal

    GOAL: Cardiff 3-2 Swindonpublished at 16:38 BST 8 August

    Jack Moylan (77 mins)

    A debut goal for Jack Moylan and Cardiff re-take the lead!

    It hasn't taken him long at all. Five minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute, Moylan comes on to Yousef Salech's pass and sweeps the ball into the top corner.

    What a way to make an impact at your new club.

  6. 'Cobblers handed a lifeline'published at 16:37 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Tim Oglethorpe
    BBC Radio Northampton commentator

    That is extraordinary! The flag was so late to call the offside.

    The Cobblers have been handed a lifeline and are back in this game.

    These games in the heat tend to slow down, not this one - this is speeding up!

  7. Around the groundspublished at 16:37 BST 8 August

    EFL Cup first round

    The scoreline remains 1-1 between Bromley and Reading but Reading captain Lewis Wing, usually so reliable in dead ball situations, has missed a penalty - hitting the inside of the post as the ball goes to safety for the hosts.

    Elsewhere, Bradford have doubled their lead against Rochdale through Aden Baldwin, and Luton are now two to the good at Gillingham thanks to Benedict Benagr's goal.

    Blackpool are two up too, thanks to Josh Bowler's strike at Grimsby, but Leyton Orient and Oxford United remains goalless.

    League Two Newport County have taken the lead at AFC Wimbledon through Yahya Bamba's long range strike and Accrington have equalised at Crewe via Farrend Rawson's close range finish.

    Salford have pegged back Shrewsbury with Kyrell Malcolm getting his name on the scoresheet.

  8. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 16:37 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    It was nearly game done and dusted as Leicester's Liam Cullen drove a volley past Zach Jeacock.

    Northampton fans breathe a sigh of relief when they see the flag go up for offside.

  9. Postpublished at 16:36 BST 8 August

    Derby 1-2 Lincoln

    Ben House has been in the mood for Lincoln today and now he forces Derby goalkeeper Jacob Widell Zetterstrom into a fine save.

    House drives high towards goal from a tight angle on the left but Zetterstrom tips it over the bar.

  10. Postpublished at 16:35 BST 8 August

    Burnley 1-1 Notts County

    Burnley are pressing for a winner but Notts County are still clinging on.

    Zeki Amdouni goes for an audacious effort from the edge of the area, trying to curl towards the far corner, but it sails just wide.

    Into the final 15 minutes we go.

  11. goal

    GOAL: Sheff Wed 1-0 Boltonpublished at 16:35 BST 8 August

    Jamal Lowe (70 mins)

    And there's the breakthrough...

    Jamal Lowe has only been on the pitch for seven minutes but already he's given his side the lead after getting on the end of a through ball from skipper Barry Bannan.

    Bolton will only have themselves to blame. Down to 10 men and now chasing the game.

  12. 'A strange hour'published at 16:34 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    Andrew Moon
    BBC Radio Solent commentator

    This has been an strange hour.

    Normally if Pompey were 3-1 down after an hour you'd be pointing out flaws, and there's certainly been some of them. But for the majority of the hour they've been pretty comfortable and playing pretty well.

  13. Jensen's rare featpublished at 16:34 BST 8 August

    FT: QPR 1-1 Millwall - Millwall win 2-0 on penalties

    Millwall goalkeeper Lukas Jensen is the first goalkeeper to save all four penalties in a shoot-out for an English club in any competition since Jason Steele for Brighton against Newport in the 2020-21 FA Cup.

    He becomes only the second goalkeeper to do so since 2013-14 when full Opta records for shoot-outs began.

  14. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 16:34 BST 8 August

    Swansea 0-1 Birmingham

    August Priske's goal might yet be the winner for Blues but his day isn't ending how he would like.

    He is forced off as Luis Vazquez takes his place. Jay Stansfield makes way for Ethan Laird.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:33 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    There's two more changes for the away side as Connor Lemonheigh-Evans and Kamarai Sawyer are swapped out for defender Max Dyche and club veteran Sam Hoskins.

    A goal from Hoskins would take him to 105 goals for Northampton since he joined more than 10 years ago.

    Mo Kante goes down, possibly with cramp. It is hot today, folks.

    He's back on his feet to play on and he'll have plenty of support from his West Ham team-mates.

    Either Valentin Castellanos or Jarrod Bowen have been involved in all three of the Hammers goals today. Talent is on show this afternoon, that's for sure.

  17. 'Leicester miss a number nine'published at 16:31 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Matt Piper
    Former Foxes winger on BBC Radio Leicester

    If there is one person that is missing in this game for Leicester, it is an out-and-out number nine.

    You want someone who is front-footed and will really go up against that defence, and is aggressive, but that shirt number hasn't been assigned yet.

    So, you never know what might come yet?

  18. goal

    GOAL: Norwich 4-1 MK Donspublished at 16:30 BST 8 August

    Andre Brooks (59 mins)

    A debut goal for Andre Brooks!

    In fact, two goals to bring you up to speed with at Carrow Road.

    MK Dons' Nathaniel Mendez-Laing had a penalty saved by Canaries keeper Vladan Kovacevic. From the resulting corner, Ryan Wintle fired home the loose ball inside the box via a deflection to get a goal back for the visitors.

    Norwich restored their three-goal advantage just three minutes later though as good pressing from Philippe Clement's men saw Brooks nip in and go in on goal from halfway, and one-on-one, he slipped the ball into the back of the net.

    Brooks takes his shirt off which will earn him a first yellow card for the club but he won't care a jot about that.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONSpublished at 16:28 BST 8 August

    West Ham 3-1 Portsmouth

    More worries for Portsmouth as Thomas Waddingham goes down on his own accord.

    The 21-year-old had not long been on the pitch but is hobbling off already.

    Zak Swanson and Luke Le Roux also take a seat as Eoin Kenny is on alongside fellow debutants Odin Bailey and the highly anticipated Marko Milovanovic.

  20. 'Very quiet in the King Power'published at 16:27 BST 8 August

    Leicester 1-0 Northampton

    Jack Rafferty
    BBC Radio Leicester commentator

    It has been very quiet in the King Power Stadium today, and it does have the feel of a pre-season friendly.

    The Northampton fans are making a bit of noise, but it is not helped by the fact the stadium is half-empty.
