Match Summary
|
Shirt-sleeved fans see Phillips fire home and quick-thinking Clarke nip in to score. Butler is redundant in a first half which ends with Reid crashing home Ferrier’s pass. Another thunderbolt makes it four, then Harris and Scoular set up Clarke to net Pompey’s 50th at Fratton so far.
