Hamilton's Stoppage-Time Strike Lifts Blackpool Out of the Drop Zone

· Match Report

CJ Hamilton netted a stoppage-time winner as Blackpool moved out of the League One relegation zone with a 1-0 victory over Burton at Bloomfield Road.

The Seasiders were backed by a sold-out home crowd, as the club celebrated the recent anniversary of its 2019 homecoming fixture, with their strong support inspiring them to a vital win against their fellow strugglers. The result lifted Ian Evatt's men two points above Exeter and just one behind the Brewers in 18th.
