Half-Time Report: James Hayter penalty puts Yeovil Town in front

Hayter penalty puts Yeovil in front

Yeovil Town lead Blackpool 1-0 in this afternoon's Championship clash at Bloomfield Road, courtesy of a penalty by James Hayter.

The hosts had a chance to open the scoring in the fourth minute when David Goodwillie found space to shoot, but Glovers goalkeeper Chris Dunn saved well to his right.

Yeovil broke the deadlock from the penalty spot in the 16th minute following a blatant handball in the area by Tony McMahon, with Hayter rifling home from 12 yards.

Gary Johnson's side has several chances to extend their lead, with Blackpool shot-stopper Matt Gilks doing well to deny first Liam Davis and then Hayter moments later to keep the scoreline at 1-0 at the interval.
