| Match Summary | Stoke are out of luck as Pompey retain an unbeaten run at all levels (first, reserves and youth). Harris poaches the vital goal, firing home after Herod fails to hold a greasy ball – soaked following a pre-match shower. Baker misses an open goal late on, and sees Rookes head off the line. |
