Scunthorpe 1-1 Tranmere

Tranmere's Steve Jennings is dejected after missing out on the play-offs

Scunthorpe sealed the final League One play-off place at the expense of Tranmere after captain Cliff Byrne snatched a dramatic late goal.

Tranmere had seemed set for a play-off place when Craig Curran headed home Ian Moore's cross at the far post.

But Rovers were reduced to 10 men when defender Gareth Edds was sent off for a second bookable offence

And Scunthorpe finally struck with just two minutes to go as Byrne headed home a free-kick from Grant McCann.
