Key Events

Aiden O’Brien almost makes an instant impact as he meets Carter’s cross from the right, but Cairns is able to gather. The former Sunderland man will have felt hard done by not to start after two goals in his previous two matches.
Walker so, so unlucky again as he taps Harness’ cross home from close range before the linesman raises his flag for offside. Pompey far better this half.
Hackett whips a free-kick over the wall but also the bar before another Fleetwood player goes down and receives treatment.
SO CLOSE. Hume delivers an excellent cross to the back post where Tyler Walker looked certain to score but his header was thwarted by an excellent block by Clarke before a double Cairns save. So unlucky.
Fleetwood causing more frustration as Johnstone requires treatment for cramp. The Cod Army clearly looking to run the clock down early doors here.
