Match Summary
|
Barlow sends Phillips clear, then Harris is given time and space as Pompey show their class. Clarke scores from point blank, then two quick goals let the limping Rookes leave the field. Harris nabbed a hat-trick late on, bracketing County’s best effort which was cleared off the line.
