In a game of little quality a moment of magic separated the two sides. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Birmingham have seen this one out like, dare I say it, Champions. Keshi Anderson's superb strike, taking the ball on his chest and unleashing a vicious dipping volley under the crossbar from well outside the area, was worthy of winning any game. For Huddersfield, it's a blow in their push for automatic promotion, and back-to-back home defeats, without scoring, in the space of four days. Blues have a nice cushion, and games in hand in the race for a top-two finish. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Louis Reynolds BBC Radio Leeds Huddersfield Town staring down the barrel of a seventh league defeat this season. #bbcefl Azeem Abdulai already looks a smart signing by Leyton Orient from Swansea as he grabbed a hat-trick in a 6-2 win at Exeter. The O's are now in the top six. Charlton strengthened their play-off charge by beating Bristol Rovers 2-0 and Stockport held on to beat Shrewsbury 1-0. Reading suffered a hammer blow defeat by a resurgent Burton - the Royals recovered from 2-0 down to level only for Rumarn Burrell to score his second goal and the winner in the last minute. Ade Adeyemo scored a late winner for Crawley as they won 1-0 at Mansfield, and Rotherham came from behind to beat Cambridge United 2-1 with Hakeem Odoffin scoring the second goal for the Millers. Peterborough halted their slide with a 1-0 win over Wigan. Goals from Ashley Fletcher and Oliver Casey gave Blackpool a 2-0 away win at Lincoln. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Good block from Radinio Balker to thwart Alfie May as he looked set to stride through unopposed to get a shot away at Jacob Chapman's goal. May allows the ball to bounce behind for a corner, but then picks up a booking for something he said, presumably. Blues can't make the corner county but the ball is returned to debutant Kieran Dowell, who came off the bench earlier, who whips a first-time shot over Chapman's crossbar from the edge of the box. That would have sealed it nicely. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Birmingham, perhaps understandably, are in no hurry to take throw-ins. Referee Adam Herczeg is already telling them to get on with it, and we have another seven minutes yet. Not sure if the news of Wycombe's win or Wrexham's defeat will have filtered through to the pitch and if so, whether that would make any difference. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Grant Hanley makes his presence felt with a good clearing header from Antony Evans's driven corner. The pressure continues but City eventually escape with a goal-kick. #bbcefl Notts County and Bradford are the big winners of the night, scoring the only goals of their games before the break to move level with Crewe as the three teams immediately behind leaders Walsall. Calum Kavanagh gave the Bantams victory over bottom side Morecambe, while Alassana Jatta’s winner took the Magpies past second-bottom Carlisle. Crewe took an early lead at home to Wimbledon when Jamie Knight-Lebel pounced following a corner, but Josh Neufville's equaliser just before half-time gave the away side a 1-1 draw. They're two points behind the Railwaymen in sixth. Swindon are closer to the play-off places than danger thanks to a 3-1 win over third-bottom Tranmere, recovering from 1-0 behind in the 86th minute to condemn Rovers to eight consecutive away defeats during a single EFL season for only the second time in 40 years. The visitors had two players sent off. Midtable Fleetwood thrashed Walsall 6-2 in October and have beaten them again, scoring through Shaun Rooney and James Bolton in a 2-0 home win as the Saddlers' winless run at Highbury Stadium extended to four games. John Coleman has his first win at the third attempt since taking over at Gillingham, winning 1-0 at Grimsby through Doug Tharme's own goal in a result that leaves his side 16th and their opponents 11th. Tyrese Fornah’s second-half dismissal compounded Salford’s frustration as they missed out on going seventh with a 1-1 draw at home to fourth-bottom Newport, who are six points clear of danger. Harrogate have been beaten in their last three meetings with MK Dons after losing in cruel fashion tonight. The visitors equalised in the 92nd minute through Zico Asare but Alex Gilbey condemned them to a 2-1 defeat with the winner a minute later. Chesterfield beat Bromley 3-0 at home to win in midweek for the first time in four attempts and win their first game in six, helped by Omar Sowunmi's 23rd-minute dismissal along with visiting manager Andy Woodman. Cheltenham are winless in six away games and have failed to score in their last three after earning a 0-0 draw at Accrington, who are eight points above the relegation zone after taking 10 points from their last five league games. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Bit of a testy finish to this one, and we'll have plenty more of it. .. TEN minutes have been added. Huddersfield are on the front foot. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham Tom Lees might have a broken nose there. Blues make a double switch during the delay. Grant Hanley comes on for his City debut, replacing Taylor Gardner-Hickman, with Alfie May also coming on, replacing Dykes, who might have been walking off a minute or two earlier if his challenge on Lees had been viewed differently. Lees is coming off, it must be a concussion sub, as Radinio Balker becomes the sixth Terriers man off the bench. FT: Wycombe 2-1 Barnsley Brian Howard Former Barnsley captain on BBC Radio Sheffield Barnsley started the game great, a perfect away start, but as the game grew, Barnsley got deeper and deeper and deeper. Whether it is a penalty or not we will have to revisit, but with the centre-half then sent off it was backs against the wall for the away side from thereon in. Huddersfield 0-1 Birmingham This one still has time to run, of course. Birmingham wanted a red card for Jonathan Hogg for a challenge on Tomoki Iwata, though the Town man only received a caution, while Matty Pearson headed over the crossbar for the hosts from a fizzing cross from Anthony Evans. Still five minutes and plenty of stoppage-time to come. Lyndon Dykes has just left Tom Lees in a crumpled heap on the floor under a high ball and picked up a caution. Lees needs some lengthy treatment to his head. Wycombe 2-1 Barnsley Richard Kone at the double - who else? No Matt Bloomfield? No problem. They did it the hard way but Wycombe take a grip on second place thanks to Richard Kone's penalty and their leading scorer's injury-time header. That came after Jon Russell had fired Barnsley ahead after 10 minutes and then seen goalkeeper Ben Killip put on a masterclass to keep the Tykes ahead. Marc Roberts' needless sending-off for the visitors didn't help their cause with the scoreline at 1-1 and they were eventually made to pay but not before Adam Phillips blasted a glaring chance over the bar moments before Kone's heroics. Wrexham 2-3 Stevenage People will say, 'Oh wow, Wrexham, ' when they see this scoreline, but Stevenage were fantastic and absolutely deserve the win. They end the Red Dragons' 15-game unbeaten streak at the Stok Cae Ras. OK, so Arthur Okonkwo might have done better for Dan Kemp and Jamie Reid's first-half goals, but after Ollie Rathbone (with a little help from Paul Mullin) got the hosts back into it after the break, we all thought the hosts would mount a Hollywood comeback. No. Jake Young added a fine third for the visitors and though Max Cleworth's flying header did tee-up a tense finale, Boro held on for a deserved three points. Wrexham 2-3 Stevenage Paul Mullin saw his name in lights and opted to take on a shot rather than find a team-mate but can only bend his effort off target. Seconds remain. .. Wycombe 2-1 Barnsley Matt Butcher replaces Cameron Humphreys for Wycombe for the final few seconds. Wycombe 2-1 Barnsley Brian Howard Former Barnsley captain on BBC Radio Sheffield Wycombe Wanderers, through leading scorer Richard Kone, have snatched a late, late lead at Adam's Park. The most dangerous striker in the league is not going to miss that. Ben Killip, for all his heroics, he has been superb all night, but he cannot do anything about that, he just saw that flying past his right hand. Wrexham 2-3 Stevenage Murphy Cooper claims a high cross from Ryan Longman and drops to the turf to waste a few seconds. Tick, tick, tick. Wrexham wanted a penalty for a handball in the box moments before but very much a case of ball-to-hand. Wrexham 2-3 Stevenage Tick, tick, tick. .. Wrexham are desperate to get it forward but we're six minutes into the added seven. Richard Kone (90 + 5 mins) He's done it again! Barnsley give away possession wide on the right, Garath Mc Cleary advances and whips in a cross which Richard Kone heads firmly into the net - goal number 16 in League One this season.
