Hamilton’s Stoppage-Time Strike Lifts Blackpool Over Burton Albion in League One Opener

BLACKPOOL, England (March 28, 2026) (Interstat) — CJ Hamilton scored deep in second-half stoppage time to give Blackpool a 1-0 victory over Burton Albion in a League One match Saturday at Bloomfield Road Stadium.

The midfielder’s decisive goal came in the 91st minute, breaking a deadlock in a contest that saw seven yellow cards issued. The result defied a pregame projection from Interstat, which had simulated a 1-1 draw and gave Blackpool a 55.6% probability to win.

The win gives Blackpool a perfect start to its League One campaign, while Burton Albion begins with a loss.
