Here’s how Pompey writer Jordan Cross saw it at West Leigh Park – do you agree with his ratings?
5. Jack Sparkes - 6
A lively battle with Hawks midfielder Tom Blair was an interesting subplot. Steady distribution but still looks to be building fitness following Exeter arrival. Photo: Portsmouth FC
6. Ben Stevenson - 7
Can see the midfield arrival is clever player. Just keeps things ticking over efficiently, but started a lot of Pompey’s best play. Photo: Portsmouth FC
7. Dan Murray - 7
Given a chance to impress and was always looking for the ball in the middle of the park. A couple of timely interventions and one smart pass opened up the Hawks defence. Photo: Jason Brown
8. Harry Jewitt-White - 6
Couldn’t influence the game as much as he did when he came on at Gosport. Got muscled around a couple of times but wasn’t lacking for energy. Photo: Jason Brown
