Grimsby A-A Derby: Match abandoned at Blundell Park due to waterlogged pitch
Wednesday 23 August 2017 11:48, UK
Grimsby's Carabao Cup clash with Derby at Blundell Park was abandoned after just 19 minutes due to adverse weather conditions.
The Sky Bet Championship side were leading 1-0 following defender Richard Keogh's fifth-minute header from a Jacob Butterfield corner.
But, after temporarily halting the match due to a waterlogged pitch caused by the torrential rain, referee Trevor Kettle spoke to stewards and the management staff of both teams before calling the tie off.
