Save! 1-1
Posh the ones making the running in the closing stages but can they find something?
Almost! Fantastic curling 25-yeard effort from Tonlinson after JCH chested it down. Fantastic diving save stops it going in the top corner.

Finally some hold-up play from JCH. Crafts Burrows space in the box to turn ans shoot. Blasts well over though.

Shocking dive from Jones.
He’s got away without a booking and that’s his last act.
On comes JCH.
Dismal showing from Jones second half.

Ref turns down another blatant foul, this time on the edge of the box as Kyprianou gets bundled over. Allows a Swindon break and Wakeling spots Bilokapic off his line. The Posh man has to sprint back and tip the ball over.
