Key Events
- Knibbs opens scoring (49min)
- Knibbs makes it 2-0 (59min)
- Jacobs close-range finish gives Pompey hope (79min)
Iredale goes into the book for a foul and the ball in from Jacobs is headed at Mitov from Curtis’ header.
Famous last words! Been little in the way of openings but Knibbs makes the breakthrough as he fires a shot through legs from the edge of the box and beats Bass’ dive.
