Match Summary Pompey open a three-point gap at the top of the league thanks to Reid’s triple. His first came after Phillips’ shot deflected into his path, then he headed home Harris’ corner. Fenton pulled one back – the first goal conceded since 21 August – but Reid seals it nodding home Phillips’ cross.
