| Match Summary |
Ten-man Pompey – Delapenha comes off injured at half-time – are still firing blanks, but they deserve a draw here, after a late rally. Wales international and Villa captain Powell heads home a Goffin free-kick. Villa defended superbly and Pompey took 80 minutes to force a corner. |
