Match Summary Pompey reassert their title credentials on a pitch so sodden the toss took place by the touchline. Done nods Pool ahead, only for Harris to level with a cross-shot. Done’s drive made it 2-1, then Butler has to have mud cleared from his eye, before Clarke levels, seizing on a lucky rebound.
