GOOOOOAAAAAALLLLL
90+5: Pompey equalise with seconds remaining! Sean Raggett stoops low to direct the ball pinto the net after it was flicked back across the goal mouth!
Another great save by Bazunu
76: Jephcott again finds space inside the box but is thwarted by another fine reaction save by Bazunu, before the 19-year-old pounces to collect the ball.
So close!
72: Harness crosses the ball towards the back-post where Curtis finds space to cleverly prod it back across goal before Marquis, on stretch, can’t divert the ball into an empty. Pompey the better side at the moment.
Pompey reply
65: Pompey reply to Argyle’s opportunity with a great chance of their own as Marquis did well to head the ball back across goal before it bounced towards Romeo on the edge of the box but he sees his goalward strike blocked heroically. Still 1-1, we’ve got an end-to-end game on our hands at Fratton Park.
