| Match Summary | Two own-goals contribute to Posh’s downfall, as Collins turns past Waugh, then Gynn intercepts Brown’s pass, only to trump his own keeper. Rogers scores the goal of the game with a rising drive, but Pompey must hope Peter Morris’ men do them a favour next week against Bradford. (Sadly due to a Newspaper strike coverage was limited.) |
