Leaders held by battling Barnsley as Wilson misses

HARRY Wilson missed a chance to extend Fulham’s four-game winning streak as the Sky Bet Championship leaders had to settle for a point from a 1-1 draw against gutsy Barnsley at Oakwell.

Wilson had fired an 86th-minute leveller for the Cottagers after the relegation-threatened Tykes grabbed a 44th-minute lead through a Carlton Morris penalty.

But Marco Silva’s men were still left to rue a late opportunity when Wilson met Fabio Carvalho’s cross with a back-post header that flashed agonisingly wide of target.

Goals from Dominic Solanke and Jamal Lowe saw Bournemouth end a run of two games without a win and clamber back to second place with a 2-0 victory over Derby.

Solanke’s effort in first-half injury time sent the Cherries on their way and Lowe prodded home the second in injury time after Solanke’s initial effort had been saved.

Blackburn blew their chance to put pressure on the automatic promotion places as Andreas Weimann grabbed a dramatic injury-time winner for Bristol City at Ewood Park. Rovers striker Bradley Dack was denied a fairytale return after a year out with a knee injury as he saw his second-half penalty saved by Robins keeper Daniel Bentley.

And Tony Mowbray’s men were punished when Weimann fired home from a Joe Williams corner to snap the Robins’ run of three straight defeats in style.

Callum O’hare scored twice as Coventry shrugged off two consecutive defeats with a thumping 4-1 win over in-form Sheffield United, who fell to their second defeat in 13 games.

Sander Berge put the Blades in front after 16 minutes but Mark Robins’ men responded in style with Viktor Gjokeres slotting an equaliser four minutes later.

O’hare netted his first after 52 minutes to give the Sky Blues the lead then added his second seven minutes later before Matthew Godden rounded off a superb home performance just past the hour mark.

Keinan Davis opened the scoring after just 17 seconds to set Nottingham Forest up for a crushing 4-0 win over struggling Reading.

Davis converted a Djed Spence cross almost immediately and added his second after 62 minutes before further strikes from Ryan Yates and Sam Surridge.

Jonson Clarke-harris scored a last-minute penalty to earn bottom club Peterborough a point in a 2-2 draw with Stoke.

Gary Madine’s fourth-minute header earned Blackpool their third straight win with a 1-0 success against Swansea, while the games between Cardiff and Preston, and Birmingham and Hull, finished goalless.
