| Match Summary | Pompey's first experience with the play offs ends in disaster. Joachim’s arrival on the hour sparks the City fans into song at last, as Leicester are becoming increasingly desperate. His stunning strike, after his pace took him past three, gives the Foxes the edge. Pompey miss Walsh’s guile and Whittingham has only one chance, saved by Poole. |
