Jonson rolls it down the centre after he cons the ref into giving it. It’s really not a penalty, sorry to say. Next to no contact with Egan, I suppose you have to say well won.

Osborn has had the beating od Ward all day, puts in another great ball, this time Freeman meets it at the far post, just over. Yet, another ball into the box they have won.

Another self-destructive spell and it’s 5. A reminder that Sheff U had scored only one league goal this season until today. Posh have now gone to the diamond with Taylor at the base and Grant at the tip.

70 mins 5-1
He’s injured himself doing it but Ndiaye makes it 5. Sharp stands up a ball from the left byline. Ndiaye has to run backwards and arch his neck to head home but does so well after being left unmarked. He lands awkwardly as he falls and is receiving treatment.
