'It didn't look great': Portsmouth concerns after being hit by fresh injury blows
The Blues have now lost one of their last 10 matches in all competitions
Pompey face an anxious wait to discover the extent of their latest injury set-backs.
The Blues scored twice in stoppage time on Tuesday night to claim a remarkable 3-1 triumph over Swansea and move into 10th in the Championship.
However, John Mousinho had lost Iyad Mohamed and Mark Milovanovic to injury before that late, late drama at Fratton Park.
Milovanovic pulled up in the 73rd minute while chasing a Terry Devlin pass down the left flank, while Thomas Waddingham waited to replace him off the bench.
In addition, Mohamed was substituted earlier in the second half with a calf issue, having started his sixth successive game for the Blues.
And with Pompey next in action on Saturday against Stoke (12.30pm), Mousinho is waiting to learn whether either can be considered for first-team duty.
‘I thought he was brilliant’
He told The News: ‘I think Iyad is okay, we just took him off as a precaution, he was feeling his calf.
‘He would probably have been fine staying on the bench rather than going straight down the tunnel, but let’s get him the treatment and patch him up for the weekend.
‘I'm not sure about Marko, we’ll just see how that settles down, it didn’t look great. I think it’s a thigh or a hip flexor, I don’t actually know in the emotion after a game, we will have him checked.
‘Marko was great, we were ready to bring him off anyway, so we had Wadds lined up. I thought he was brilliant, he gave the centre-halves a huge amount of problems.
‘Ironically, when he did get injured, he was getting in behind again, he was close to being through on goal and unfortunately pulled up.
‘Hopefully it’s not too bad, he will probably miss the weekend, we have that two week break after that, we’ll see how he is.’
Previously sidelined by a calf injury
Milovanovic was previously sidelined by a calf injury in September, missing two matches, although the three-week international break also helped his recovery.
He returned to action off the bench at Southampton last month and has since started five of the Blues’ last six fixtures, including netting a penalty winner against Norwich.
Waddingham, who replaced him for the final 17 minutes against Swansea, scored Pompey’s third with a 98th-minute finish as the match ended 3-1.
He is now in line to start against Stoke as Milovanovic’s replacement, having scored twice in four outings this season.
Meanwhile, Swansea represented Mohamed’s sixth successive start, having cemented himself in the Blues’ midfield since being handed a full debut against Sheffield United last month.
The 25-year-old has totalled nine appearances after joining from Portuguese side Casa Pia in August.
