Super performance... fair play Kenny... amazing display - Portsmouth fans react to 3-1 win at Sunderland

A John Marquis double after Marcus Harness had given Kenny Jackett’s side a seventh-minute lead handed the visitors the victory against one of their main promotion rivals.

The win – the Blues second away triumph in a week – sees the Fratton Park side move above the Black Cats in the table and into fifth place.
