LEAGUE ONE THIS WEEKEND

- TOM FARMERY

LUTON substitute Jason Cummings scored four minutes from time to earn a 2-2 draw at home to

BLACKPOOL and extend his side’s unbeaten run to 28 games — a League One record. It looked like the leaders would suffer their first league defeat since October when Matty Virtue put Blackpool 2-1 ahead a minute after James Collins was sent off for the home side. But the 10 men battled back and Cummings scored four minutes after coming on to preserve an unbeaten home league record from March last year. Manager Mick Harford said: ‘I’d like to congratula­te the players who have got to that marker of 28 games. It’s a phenomenal record, and they just keep breaking them.’ The result took Luton eight points clear of second-placed

BARNSLEY, who lost ground with a 3-1 defeat at BURTON. It ended a run of 20 league games without defeat and to make matters worse

SUNDERLAND’S George Honeyman scored a late winner in a 2-1 victory at

ROCHDALE to move his side level on points with Barnsley with two games in hand. Sunderland look determined to make up for last weekend’s Checkatrad­e Trophy final defeat and mount a push for promotion, or even the title.

PORTSMOUTH recorded a fourth straight win — 3-2 at

WYCOMBE — to stay fourth.
