Albie Morgan header earns Blackpool last-gasp draw at Burton

Albie Morgan scored a stoppage-time equaliser for Blackpool as they denied Burton a third straight home win in a 1-1 draw at the Pirelli Stadium.

The Brewers had looked set for a precious three points thanks to Rumarn Burrell’s 19th-minute opener, his sixth goal since the turn of the year.

A superb first touch took him away from his marker as he latched on to Jon Dadi Bodvarsson’s flick and the striker coolly chipped the advancing Harry Tyrer to put the Brewers in front.

Burrell almost had a second from the same spot later in the first half, but this time Tyrer was able to parry his effort to safety.

Blackpool came out strongly after half-time and leading scorer Ashley Fletcher was denied by a timely intervention from Jack Armer.

Burrell had a glorious chance to seal victory after 83 minutes when he was sent racing clear by substitute James Jones, but Tyrer produced a good save again.

Blackpool kept pushing and were rewarded when Morgan flicked home a header from Sami Silvera’s left-wing cross four minutes into added time.
