Key Events
- Pompey sign Hayden Carter on loan for the season
- Four changes as Bazunu, Williams, Harness and Raggett replace Bass, Thompson, Jacobs and Robertson.
- New boy Carter on bench
- Eisa opens scoring (20min)
- Corbeanu makes it 2-0 (45min)
- Hirst 2-1 (60min)
Ogilvie battles and wins the ball before looping a cross in. Hirst attacks it but just gets there a moment too late
Sense of angst growing among Pompey fans as their side press but can’t quite find the final pass or delivery.
Tantalising ball in from Harness but there’s no blue shirt gambling. Would’ve been a two-yard tap-in if there was.
