Do you agree with how Blues writer Jordan Cross saw it at Fratton Park?
13. Matt Ritchie 6
Set standards for the basic requirement of representing Pompey again with the armband the Gosport lad’s once again, but struggled to impact the game going forward on this occasion. | National World
14. Callum Lang 6
Total commitment once again from the Scouser but not getting the breaks. Positivity sets the tone for side as shown with charge on Jak Alnwick, but not the end product to match graft. | National World
15. Josh Murphy 8
Man on a mission against his former side as flying form continued with Murphy providing both assists for Pompey’s goals. Mixture of grace and pace is intoxicating and will now be catching eyes, but should’ve done better with clear opening after restart. | Jason Brown/ProSportsImages
16. Colby Bishop 8 MOTM
The Magic Man is back on the scoresheet! A return to goalscoring form after eight games without a finish in open play, but his performance was about so much more than that with relentless work setting tone for Pompey’s best moments. Such a clever exponent of the number nine’s trade. | National World
