Match Summary
|
Adams is offside, claim Pompey, as he runs on to a through-ball and fires past Butler, but there is no doubt Pool deserve the points. As tension mounts Scoular is booked for a foul near the end, and news of Newcastle’s win (4-2 at Derby) means any title celebrations are still on ice.
