The game finished 1–1 after normal time and extra time, a [[Tony Daws]] strike equalising [[Dave Bamber]]'s close-range header. It went to a penalty-shootout, which Blackpool won 4–3. [[Mitch Cook]], [[Paul Groves (footballer)|Paul Groves]], [[Andy Garner]] and [[David Eyres]] were the successful takers for Blackpool, but it was [[Steve McIlhargey]]'s save from substitute [[Graham Alexander]] that set up the victory. After Eyres' effort, Scunthorpe's other substitute, [[Jason White (footballer born 1971)|Jason White]], stepped up, put the ball over the bar, and Blackpool were promoted.
