Action at the top and bottom of the pile.

It's been good to have the Championship back, hasn't it? It's all to play for as we resume the season in the second tier.

It's been a long old day, with scattered kick-offs galore, from the snowy thumping of Blackburn by Preston to Sheffield United drawing level with leaders Burnley.

But this is where we leave you. We'll be back to tomorrow when the EFL action resumes.

You can get all the build-up on England's World Cup quarter-final against France here.

For now, thank you for joining us.

Two Championship games for you tomorrow.

League leaders Burnley travel to managerless QPR at 13:00 GMT, looking to extend their lead at the top back to three points after Sheffield United's win today.

At 15:00 GMT Watford take on Hull City. A win for the Hornets would see them go from sixth to third.

Join us from 12:45 GMT.

The Canaries hold on for the points.

Teemu Pukki's goal inside the opening minute of the game proves enough for Dean Smith's men who win on their return to Championship action.

Swansea had plenty of possession, created a lot of openings, but just couldn't find the equaliser.

Matt Crooks' late, late goal gives Michael Carrick's men all three points and consigns Luton to defeat in Rob Edwards' first game in charge of the Hatters.

The away side took the lead through Jordan Clark's goal before Chuba Akpom levelled for the home side.

Amari'i Bell was sent off for the away side with 18 minutes to go and they could not hold on for a point.

It ends all-square.

Cardiff took an early lead before going behind all in the opening half.

Callum Robinson then equalised just before the hour mark and the Bluebirds looked the more likely to grab a winner but it ends honours even.

Sheffield United go level on points with league leaders Burnley.

Huddersfield battled well in the second half but remain bottom of the table.

All over at The Den and the points are shared in Kolo Toure's first game in charge of Wigan.

Will Keane had sent the Latics ahead but Zian Flemming's stunning leveller before the break rescued a point for Millwall.

It finishes goalless in this one.

Birmingham had felt hard done by after Maxime Colin's goal was disallowed for offside on the verge of half-time but Blackpool hold on to end their four-game losing run.

Birthday boy Dan Batty looks to have completed the turnaround for Fleetwood and ensured maximum points at MK Dons with a goal in the final minute of normal time to make it 2-1. MK led 1-0 remember.

What a chance for the home side to take all three points!

A Ryan Giles cross goes all the way across the box to sub Matt Crooks but he somehow scoops his close range effort over the crossbar.

Swansea might be starting to lose the faith now.

Joel Piroe gets on the end of another cross but it's lacking in power and doesn't trouble Angus Gunn in the Norwich goal.

There's still time, but not much of it.

Is there a late goal? Can Blackpool end their losing run? Three minutes of normal time remain.
