Championship roundup: Bottom side Plymouth hit late leveller at Sunderland

Sunderland missed out on the chance to close to within a point of the automatic promotion places in the Championship as Nathanael Ogbeta’s 90th-minute strike gave bottom club Plymouth a surprise 2-2 draw at the Stadium of Light. The Black Cats looked set for another home win as second-half goals from Wilson Isidor and Trai Hume overturned a Plymouth lead that had come through an own goal from home goalkeeper Anthony Patterson. However, Ogbeta struck in the final minute to secure Plymouth only a fourth away point of the season.

Grady Diangana scored twice as Tony Mowbray enjoyed a glorious homecoming in West Brom’s 5-1 mauling of Portsmouth in what was a nightmare game for Nicolas Schmid at The Hawthorns. Portsmouth’s keeper gifted goals to Alex Mowatt and Diangana before the former Pompey winger Jed Wallace – and Diangana again – made it 4-0 before half-time.
John Swift scored the fifth in the 56th minute, while substitute Thomas Waddingham scored a late debut consolation.Mowbray’s last win at The Hawthorns in charge of Albion was 5,740 days ago – on May 9, 2009 – as they won 3-1 against Wigan. Wycombe missed the chance to go level on points with League One leaders Birmingham as they were held to a 0-0 draw by Northampton at Adams Park.
The Chairboys, playing their first home match since manager Matt Bloomfield's departure for Luton are two behind Birmingham having played two games more, after the table-toppers drew 1-1 with Wrexham on Thursday. Fourth-placed Huddersfield lost 1-0 at home to Bolton, another side without a manager after Ian Evatt's departure earlier in the week. Aaron Collins got the only goal in the 55th minute of the contest at the John Smith's Stadium. Stockport are up to fifth after beating second-bottom Crawley 2-0 at home, thanks to goals from Will Collar and Macauley Southam-Hales.
