Match Summary This game will long be remembered by Pompey fans for the David Norris equaliser in the last minute, which prevented the inevitable parting of the two clubs in opposite directions for a few more days. Twice Billy Sharp gave the home side the lead but first Chris Maguire with an outstanding strike from the angle of the box and then Norris with a left foot volley from outside the box levelled things up.
