Blackpool 3-0 Stevenage: Jordan Rhodes scores as Tangerines win
Last updated on .From the section League One
Jordan Rhodes’ seventh goal of the season helped Blackpool secure a well-deserved 3-0 victory against Stevenage.
The Seasiders closed in ominously on the top six, while Stevenage’s mini-blip continued thanks to a third defeat in their last four games.
Stevenage threatened early on when Jamie Reid’s powerful 20-yard strike was well saved by Dan Grimshaw.
The Seasiders replied as Kylian Kouassi’s looping header was punched effectively clear by Taye Ashby-Hammond.
Huddersfield loanee Rhodes then slid an effort inches wide following Kouassi’s knockdown.
Rhodes broke the deadlock after 37 minutes when he instinctively diverted skipper Ollie Norburn’s initial shot past a flat-footed Ashby-Hammond.
It was almost 2-0 nine minutes after the restart when Kenny Dougall thumped a 25-yard free-kick against the crossbar.
Owen Dale did make it two bang on the hour mark when he lashed home an angled shot via a deflection off the unlucky Terence Vancooten.
CJ Hamilton confidently slotted home Blackpool’s third late on after playing a tidy one-two with veteran Rhodes.
