| Match Summary | Pompey come from 2-0 down in the drizzle to keep a 23-year unbeaten record at Deepdale. Finney’s wing trickery lets him cross for the first, then the ‘plumber’ is felled in the box by Scoular. Reid nods home Froggatt’s cross to set up Barlow’s saver. Pompey finish much the stronger. |
