Peterborough 1-2 Blackpool: Gary Madine's late goal knocks Posh off the top

Highlights of the Sky Bet League One match between Peterborough and Blackpool

Peterborough were knocked off the top of Sky Bet League One after Gary Madine's last-gasp strike snatched Blackpool a 2-1 win.

The resurgent visitors continued their charge with a fifth successive victory in all competitions.

Striker Madine pounced from close range in the last minute to tuck away a low CJ Hamilton cross from the right and settle the game - shortly after Posh thought they had salvaged a point through birthday boy Frankie Kent.

The central defender celebrated turning 25 by heading Posh level in the 84th minute after being picked out by Dan Butler's corner.

But the celebrations proved to be short-lived as the visitors responded impressively to earn a deserved success courtesy of Madine.
