McConville skins Close and then thunders a shot off the bar. Pompey lucky not to be 2-0 down there

Charles thunders a shot wide with the aid of a deflection from 20 yards - can see why the striker is in demand

Rain still teeming down at the moment but not quite as heavy. Pitch got a lot of zip and a little surface water in places

Both Charlton and Lincoln are winning, giving Pompey a mountain to climb to make the top six as things stand

Charles in a dangerous position in the box but Nicloaisen and Raggett do enough to avert the sizeable danger

Decent free-kick in from Close which Curtis tries to adjust his positioning to but heads over

Russell shoots straight at MacGillivray when well placed just inside the box

Pompey fans not impressed with Marquis’ miss
