| Match Summary | Sagar is Everton’s saviour as Pompey muff chance after chance. Everton, with Liddell hobbling, finally crack after Froggatt’s rocket, which would have beaten any goalkeeper. He then nods home Scoular’s cross. An offside denies him a hat-trick, but Barlow’s drives seal the points. |
