| Match Summary |
The small crowd suggests Pompey’s title dream is dying and they make heavy weather of this game. Clarets are not a vintage and haven’t won since December. Froggatt’s acute angle shot looks harmless, but it squirms in, then Clarke nets after a scramble. Spencer ensures a tense finish. |
