Friday’s football game at Bloomfield Road pits together Blackpool and Millwall, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the season finale. The Seasiders quickly bounced back from a 2-0 loss to WBA, with the team beating Birmingham City thanks to Ian Poveda’s goal, and, no doubt, the 23-year-old deserves to be recalled to the starting XI.
