LIVE: Morecambe vs Posh

Key Events

  • 3pm kick-off

Posh are doing about enough here but it’s not exactly convincing.

Good commanding catch from Norris finally from a corner.

Morecambe back on the front foot. Corner now.

Rawson gets up above his man, heads it well but it’s just over the bar. That was close

Good counter from Posh.

Excellent from Ogbeta to win the ball in his own half, bring it right to the edge of the box via a one-two with Thompson. He slips Taylor in from an acute angle on hte left, he shoots and Ripley saves.

Ben Thompson on for Poku.

Burrows will now shift out wide.

Comical moment as Jensen Weir slips trying to take a free kick from 30 yards out, Posh he slips and Posh get a free-kick for a double-touch.

That has to be 3-1.

Smith is completely unmarked from the corner. He’s six yards out and has to score, seems to get his body positioning all wrong and flicks it it wide.

Corner Morecambe.

Cooney curls in a ball, headed over and out by Edwards.

Still plenty of space for Posh if they can fidn the right pass.

Morecambe are still plugging away They work a good chance as Mayor picks Kmight’#s pocket and drills in a cross from the right. He’s lucky 2 Morecambe players get in each others way as they try to shoot.

Well, it was until Fuchs gifts the ball straight to Stockton 25 yards out. He’s grateful to see the forward blast over.
