LIVE: Posh vs Fleetwood

Ajiboye is the main threat for Posh, he/s getting into plenty of space on the right to fire balls into the box.

Posh have taken control of this now.

Mothersille marks his return to the side with a goal.

He’s set up by the other change to the side, great cross all the across the box that Mothersille has a simple take of poking in.

17 mins 1-0 Fleetwood

Cleared easily.

15 mins 1-0 Fleetwood

Not much from Posh so far, Kyprianou wins a corner from a blocked cross.

12 mins 1-0 Fleetwood

That’s justice.

That looked a poor decision, Lawal had muscled himself past Edwards and Edwards was wrong wide trying to attempt a tackle but he feels arms on his back and flops to the ground.

8 mins 1-0 Fleetwood

Saved!

Straight at Steer.

What a poor kick from Omochere and the keeper goes the right way.

6 mins 1-0 Fleetwood

Sloppy start from Posh, even as well at the obvious.

Burrows has given the ball away a couple of times already with loose passes.

Fleetwood sitting in a back five.

1 mins 1-0 Fleetwood

14 seconds in and Posh are trailing.

Fleetwood kik-off fly forward, Omochere carries the ball past a couple, lays it off to Lawal on the edge of the box and he smashes it in past a helpless Steer, right into the corner.
