RECAP as Portsmouth fail to take chances but show character to earn Accrington draw

The stats read one win in 12 in all competition with eight goals shipped in the past two outings.

Key Events
- Two changes as Ogilvie and Hackett replace Tunnicliffe and Freeman
- Curtis 1-0 (18min)
- Pell levels (50min)
- Butcher 2-1 (78min)
- Harness 2-2 86min
Harness is clear on goal but takes his shot early and Savin gets a hand out to stop his finish with the winger’s follow-up over the top. Another great chance.
Marquis flashes an effort across the face of goal and Harness is in close attendance but doesn’t stick a leg out to divert the ball home.
Savin is out of his goal and loses it to Curtis who fires at goal from the right touchline. The ball is on its way but Butcher slides in and the ball somehow ricochets off the post and away to safety.
