| Match Summary | Three day week means Pompey have a mid week afternoon game and only a small crowd create a pre-season atmosphere. The Owls nick a point 15 seconds from the end. Potts takes advantage of hesitant defending to level. Davies converted Piper’s cross with a smart shot and Price played after six months out and Marinello is dropped. Most present would have rather been at work! |
