Booking for Smith. He’s just flown into Ward with the ball going out of play. Second leg was very high. Takes the ball but he knows what he’s doing in making that.

Burrows caught out once again, Knight has to head away a dangerous cross. Port Vale still coming.
74 mins 3-0 Posh
Great goal. Ward has been wasted at full back all game. Now at wing back, he has space in front of him. Charges forward on a counter, Marriott plays a great ball into him. He gets the ball and smashes it into the far corner- in off the post.

Thompson and Butler both on the bench. Might be good options considering the amount of balls coming in and how much Port Vale are targeting the wide areas.
