League One round-up

Sheffield Wednesday climbed above cross-city rivals Sheffield United in the battle for promotion as they beat Carlisle United 2-1 at Hillsborough this afternoon.

Michail Antonio's stoppage-time winner saw Dave Jones's side snatch the points and move into second spot at the expense of United, who were beaten 1-0 by MK Dons.

Meanwhile, Rochdale were condemned to relegation as they fell to a 2-1 defeat to Chesterfield, who survive for another week with victory.

Exeter also avoided the drop for now as they came from behind to beat fellow strugglers Walsall 4-2, while Leyton Orient secured their safety with a 2-2 draw against Yeovil Town.
