Posh trying to be a bit more on the front foot but struggling to string a couple of passes together, pretty strong press not helping.

Corner Derby, goo tackle Kent on NML.

Ward must have given everytime he’s got it. Puts Posh under pressure again, they’re so pushed back left back Roberts has just got a header away in the box. Good dinked ball in from McGoldrick.

Ward has just controlled that straight out of play, my word. Him and Burrows giving the ball away constantly.
