Simon has emailed in with an update from the Scottish Premiership:
“Late drama in Scotland as St. Mirren claim the final top six place with a late winner at home to Ross County, while Hearts could only draw at Motherwell. Dundee United held on to beat St. Johnstone, who remain bottom, 1-0.”
Marco Asensio steps up to take his second penalty but it is saved again by Aaron Ramsdale. However, John McGinn is there to score the rebound.

Abdoulaye Doucouré surely wins it for Everton in added time!
Dwight McNeil steals the ball from Murillo on the halfway line and drives forward before threading his pass through to Doucouré, who calmly fires his shot into the top corner!

Another penalty to Aston Villa! Marco Asensio is up to take again…
There’s less than five minutes to play in most fixtures across the EFL and Premier League…
Huge chance for Leicester! Bilal El Khannouss hits the post! It’s still 2-2 at the Amex Stadium.
It’s still goalless at the City Ground. Nothing splits Nottingham Forest and Everton as things stand.
Villa are flying now! Donyell Malen extends the advantage.
Morgan Rogers receives the ball from Amadou Onana in midfield before turning and driving forward. He plays the ball to Donyell Malen on his right who fires his shot across Ramsdale and into the bottom-left corner.

Leicester are level through Caleb Okoli!
Bilal El Khannouss sends a free kick into the box and the defender runs in behind at the back post to head it home! Poor defending from the hosts.

The deadlock has finally been broken at St Mary’s! And it’s super-sub Ollie Watkins with the goal!
Youri Tielemans sends a lofted pass over the Southampton defence to the striker, who makes a run into the box. Watkins then simply flicks his shot over Ramsdale on the volley to give his team the advantage!

Two goals in quick succession see Portsmouth draw level with Derby at Fratton Park. Jerry Yates had put Derby 1-0 up in the 70th minute, but a matter of moments later Robert Atkinson fired home the equaliser.

Penalty to Aston Villa. Ollie Watkins wins it just moments after coming off the bench.
The deadlock has finally been broken at the Den with Camiel Neghli firing Millwall to a 1-0 lead.
West Brom have extended their lead over Watford thanks to Mikey Johnston. 2-0 at the Hawthorns.
Swansea have just gone 1-0 up against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Ben Cabango with the goal.
Blackburn are down to 10 men. Kristi Montgomery receives his second yellow card. Luton have a one-man advantage now so they will be confident that they can get something from this.
João Pedro steps up to take the spot kick and converts, sending Mads Hermansen the wrong way and firing the ball into the top-right corner.

Penalty to Brighton…
Blackburn have taken the lead against Luton. Yuki Ohashi breaks the deadlock and fires the visitors into a 1-0 advantage.
It’s all happening at the Broadfield Stadium! Orient now lead thanks to another goal from Charlie Kelman! That’s two in two minutes.
Well… Crawley didn’t lead for long! Charlie Kelman levels things up for Leyton Orient.
We’re now back under way across the leagues. Crawley have taken the lead against Leyton Orient thanks to a converted penalty from Junior Quitirna.
An interesting Leicester stat for you – Stephy Mavididi’s goal was the club’s first in the Premier League since 26 January. It was also their first goal in 885 minutes.
We have an update on what’s happening at the Cardiff City Stadium. The unwell fan is now being taken to hospital. Players are back on the pitch and will complete a five-minute warm-up before play resumes.
Thanks Dominic! I can’t say it’s been too exciting across the Premier League and Championship. Hopefully some more goals to come in the second half.
- Brighton 1-1 Leicester
- Nottingham Forest 0-0 Everton
- Southampton 0-0 Aston Villa
And with that, I’ll hand over to Emillia Hawkins, who will steer you through the second half of today’s clockwatch. Enjoy, Emillia!
Re: Scotland here’s the latest via Simon:
As we approach HT it’s 1-0 United v St. Johnstone, Manny Adegboyega with the goal, and it’s as you were in the race for top six with the games at Motherwell and St. Mirren both level.
Bristol Rovers are another team in trouble. And they’re tailing 2-0 to Exeter. The League One relegation battle is so crazy that it’s probably worth waiting for all today’s games to play out before we explain all the permutations.
A big equaliser for Stockport against Rotherham. A diamond of a goal you might say … it’s been scored by Jack Diamond.
In League Two, Tranmere have gone 3-0 down to Accrington and could yet get pulled into the relegation mire.
Cardiff v Stoke has been halted for the time being due to a medical emergency in the crowd. Let’s hope everyone is OK there. Medics are attending.
Lewis Dunk gives the ball away cheaply and Leicester pounce through Stephy Mavididi. He’s scored! The Foxes are level and that’s come out of nowhere.
A first goal in nine games for Leicester.

I’m not saying Nottingham Forest and Everton are boring to watch, but it’s not a huge surprise that it’s 0-0 at the City Ground so far. They are two of the league’s more defensive-minded teams, that’s all.
The onus is on Forest to get things going forward.
Talking of obvious nicknames, it’s a surprise that the Villans aren’t yet ahead at Southampton. Stand-in Saints manager Simon Rusk has talked of wanting his team to “enjoy their work” as they look to avoid the ignominy of recording the Premier League’s lowest ever points tally.
Villa have a glittering forward line including Marcus Rashford, Marco Asensio and Morgan Rogers this afternoon but they haven’t fired yet.
It hasn’t taken Bristol City long to hit back at QPR, via the highly-rated West Ham loanee George Earthy.
The Robins have been the form side in the Championship of late and, with their playoff rivals failing to win as things stand, that’s a big goal.
There it is. Brighton are ahead against lacklustre Leicester and it’s come via the penalty spot. João Pedro sends the keeper the wrong way.
No idea why it took so long for VAR to rubber-stamp that decision, by the way.
