Key Events

  • 3pm kick-off

Terrible second half from Posh

99 mins 3-1 Pompey

EMC sends a low ball into the box, Norris falls on it.

96 mins 3-1 Pompey

Sparkes down getting treatment, come on we all want to get home.

It was a long night.

96 mins 3-1 Pompey

Should be 3-2.

He’s been lively since he came on but Kioso has just crossed to Sturge, he’s got plenty of space in the box but makes a horrible mess of his shot and manages to push it over the bar from around 10 yards out.

94 mins 3-1 Pompey

A couple of corners lead to scrambles.

In the end, Ajiboye fires a shot at goal, deflected and falls nicely to Poku at the far post, but he can’t slide it in, just one of those days.

92 mins 3-1 Pompey

Sturge pops up on the left, found by Burrows. Shoots at Norris from a tight angle but the ball bursts out of his hands and over.

90 mins 3-1 Pompey

Sean Raggett and Alex Robertson on

Swanson and Saydee off

89 mins 3-1 Pompey

Kyprianou kicks out at Sparkes, yellow card.

Posh had been trying to find a cross on the edge of the Pompey box. Nothing coming off, nothing even deflecting off for a corner or anything.

87 mins 3-1 Pompey

Collins gets up and ends up wasting a great crossing opportunity from a Posh scorner cleared out to him.
