Posted Sunday, April 14, 2024 by PA
Blackpool kept up the pace in the League One play-off race with a slender 1-0 victory over relegated Carlisle.
Karamoko Dembele scored one of the quickest goals this season as he bagged the only goal of the game inside the first minute at Brunton Park.
It was a third win in a row for Neil Critchley’s chasers, who are three points off the pace having played a game more than incumbents Oxford.
The midfielder needed just 22 seconds to fire the visitors in front as he took Shayne Lavery’s ball into his stride before curling home.
Harry Lewis produced a good save to keep out Lavery and stop Blackpool going two ahead inside 10 minutes.
Luke Armstrong saw his header cleared off the line on the hour mark for the hosts.
Down the other end, Lewis produced a good stop to deny Sonny Carey.
Paul Simpson’s side slipped to a third defeat in four as they look towards life back in League Two.
