West Bromwich Albion 1-3 Stoke City: Baggies' play-off chances almost over

West Bromwich Albion's Championship play-off hopes are almost over after they slipped to defeat by Stoke City.

A shadow of the side that had beaten Fulham and Bournemouth in their last two games at home, the Baggies were largely under par and the Potters made them pay.

Jake Livermore's own goal put Stoke in front before Jacob Brown's thumping header doubled the lead on the hour.

Substitute Callum Robinson tapped in to give Albion hope and although Andy Carroll went close to levelling with a header, Lewis Baker sealed the points with a breakaway third in injury time.
