What a cracker, Bournemouth score in last minute of extra time first half to go 3-2 up.
Huddersfield score less than a minute later. 3-3

[Jim05]

Bournemouth down to 10. Very rash tackle.
Bournemouth had a big penalty shout turned down a minute ago. Clear handball for mine

[Jim05]

Off to penalties

[Jim05]

Huddersfield won shootout 4-2.
Great game, far superior to that crap the portuguese put up on the other channel in europa final.
Felt a bit sorry for Bournemouth and the debate will arise again about away goals. Surely if you can draw 3-3 away after a 1-1 home effort you deserve to go through not take your chances at penalties.

It was one of the best games I have seen in a very long time, could of gone either way at any time for both sides for the whole game. I am glad I chose to watch this over the Europa league final.

Totally agree.
The league 1 playoffs have been a cracker. This mornings game and the Dons v Posh game were two of the best games of the season. Lets hope the 2nd leg tomorrow between the dons and the posh is like the first leg. League 1 has earnt a reputation as the excitement league this season.
The europa league final was garbage

I told you the lower leagues offer a better brand of football.

Have also know that for years, I just watch football anyway, any level, any where around the world.....except la liga I just cant get into it, its too boring (I'm Italian and i am saying that) its the most 2 sided comp in the world even more than scotland.

Agree totally la liga is boring.
Portuguese league is crap aswell, got sides full of silky skills but they spend most of the match time wasting and rolling around on the pitch like theyve been shot.
Never was a huge fan of Bundesliga before but the last few years have been sensational.
Im like you though, i would watch dozens of games every week of any standard, if serie b or conference football was on id watch it, well almost MLS is crap.

League 1
Half Time
Peterborough 1-0 MK Dons. Agg 3-3

[Jim05]

The posh 2 up.
Should be 3 the ref just stuffed up big time. Foul on edge of box and a couple of seconds later they score but ref brings it back for free kick. Ref should have played advantage.

[Jim05]

Full Time
Peterborough 2-0 MK Dons
Peterborough win 4-3 on aggregate

You are right, when i saw the replay it was a dive. But if the ref thinks it was a foul then he must pay the advantage.
Good game again though, the final should be a classic with 2 very attack minded sides.

It's a shame that Fox don't put more of these games on TV

[Jim05]

Accy 0-1 Stevenage. Stevenage 3-0 agg
Shrewsbury 0-0 Torquay. Torquay 2-0 agg

[johntheclaret]

League 2
Accy 0-1 Stevenage. Stevenage 3-0 agg
Shrewsbury 0-0 Torquay. Torquay 2-0 agg

Torquay will romp it based on the 4 semi final games

AFC Wimbledon win their 5th promotion in 8 seasons after a 4-3 win on penalties against Luton Town.
Another VERY good lower league game.
They will be in League 2 next season. Only 1 division away from MK Dons.
