That joke of a decision from the referee proves costly as the resulting free-kick goes to the backpost and is headed back across goal and in by Lenihan.

Great tackle from Beevers on Dolan, wins the ball cleanly. Dolan ends up on the floor but the referee reacts to the crowd and the fact he stays down ad gives a booking. Incredible.

Where to Posh go from here? All the same mistakes, poor touches and slow build up play in evidence again. Szmodics is the one trying hard upfront but he’s got no support in players making the runs for him, pressing with him or finding him when he makes runs.
