| Match Summary | Two late goals transform Pompey’s prospects. Without Dickinson (England duty) and Flewin (hospital), stout defending and opportunism are the key. Reid feeds off Clarke’s flick, then Froggatt nods in Scoular’s cross. Liverpool and Sunderland falter leaving Pompey in pole position. |
