Not good news, Poku down on the ground. Didn’t look to have been involved in a challenge.

Marriott starting to look weary. May not last much longer.

Thompson tries for the header but Roberts is up too well. Encouraging start to the half for Posh, seem to be better in possession this half.

Corner Posh. Burrows finds Taylor on the edge of the box, good half volley deflected wide.

Posh open the half with a good spell on the ball. Taylor tries a lofted pass, just ahead of JCH. God intent from Posh.

Jeremie Bela comes on for Pedersen at half-time. A pacy winger.

Good one for Posh

Booking Kent, smart one to stop a breakaway. Mumba had shown great feet but just couldn’t find space to get a ball in.
