Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson saluted his team’s character after they twice came from behind to snatch a dramatic 3-2 win at promotion rivals Derby.
Ferguson saw his side level late on and then take all three points with a stoppage-time winner from Ricky-Jade Jones.
Derby had made a sensational start to 2024 with Tom Barkhuizen crossing for James Collins to head in after only 22 seconds, but Peterborough hit back in the ninth minute when Harrison Burrows found the bottom left corner from 15 yards.
The speed and accuracy of Peterborough’s passing was a threat but they wasted chances with Joel Randall squandering the best of them when he fired over in the 50th minute.
That looked to be a pivotal moment when Derby regained the lead on the hour aft…

Ivory Coast coach Sabri Lamouchi says his only objective is to return home with Africa Cup of Nations trophy.
After penalty heartbreak in 2012 final against Zambia nothing less than victory will be good enough for The Elephants this time around.
Their campaign begins on Tuesday against Togo, who are boosted by the return of star man Emmanuel Adebayor.
The question is not that it s my first AFCON, the question is: is the Ivory Coast team able to win the AFCON this time? You know it better than me, Ivory Coast was the favourite several times, he said.
It s not important to know if Sabri Lamouchi will win his first AFCON, or if Lacina Traore, playing the AFCON for the first time, will be good.
What matters to us is that the Ivory Coast will try …

Atletico Madrid out-of-favour forward Kevin Gameiro is a summer transfer target for La Liga rivals Valencia.
The 31-year-old French forward joined Los Colchineros in 2016 but largely struggled to break into the first-team fold under Diego Simeone and is said to be looking for a way out of the club.
Valencia have emerged as a realistic destination for the former Paris Saint-Germain striker who is said to be keen on a move to Los Che.
Having fallen behind Diego Costa, Antoine Griezmann and Fernando Torres in the pecking order in Madrid, Gameiro managed only 11 La Liga starts during the 2017/18 season.
He has been linked with a return to his homeland with both Lyon and Saint-Etienne said to be keen on grabbing him but Gameiro is likely to remain in Spain.

Crystal Palace right-back Nathaniel Clyne, who was a regular starter for Liverpool until Alexander-Arnold appeared and overtook him in the pecking order, isn t surprised by his former teammate excelling in the new role.
“Coming through the academy at Liverpool, I think he was playing quite a few of his games at centre-midfield. He’s got the quality with his passing.”

Pedro Rodriguez says Lionel Messi is to thank for guiding Barcelona into the Champions League semi-finals.
Messi, in doubt due to a minor hamstring problem, sat on the bench for over an hour, and in his absence Barca struggled, falling behind to a Javier Pastore strike five minutes into the second half at Camp Nou.
But the Argentine left his fingerprints all over the game shortly after his 62nd-minute introduction, as his driving run opened up the defence, eventually allowing Pedro to rifle home the equaliser and send Barca through on away goals.
And despite scoring the all-important goal, Pedro was quick to lead the acclaim for Messi, telling reporters: Messi is a very important player and he put in a great effort (after coming on).He was the catalyst, we change…
