You can see why West Brom don’t score many. They really don't need these three centre halves. It’s not exactly a siege but only one side is carrying a threat.

More danger, Knight makes the block from Grant after another good ball in. Burrows is really struggling now.

Good ball in aswell. Kent wins it but the header loops harmlessly towards goal but out of play.
56 mins 0-0
Diangana with magic feet, jinks his way past three Posh players in the box. He finally lays it off for Grant to shoot and Mumba to block but Posh could not get anywhere near. He does it again just moments later, this time he works himself a shooting edge of the box. Straight at Benda though. He looks a real livewire.

The second half can finally start, Grant gets in down the left, loops a ball in towards JCH. Headed out but Posh have looked brighter in these few minutes. Kent has gone into the middle of the back three.

Dike pulls up now. Looks like his hamstring is gone. It was his full debut as well. On will come Diangana.
