Match Day Thread Pompey v Argyle

We are playing well MAJR esp when we play it quickly.

 

A longshot straight at Plymouth's keeper again.

 

Dont quite have a cutting edge though.

 

At times I think Pompey are overplaying it and trying to be too cute when simpler plays might get better results.

Stevens did well until the finish there.

 

We seem quite reluctant to cross the ball and hold off for a while. When the cross came in it was just behind the Pompey player so nothing came of it.

 

Jamal Lowe is coming on for Carl Baker.

 

A bit dodgy then from Burgess. A weak back pass putting Forde under undue pressure.

 

Doyle crossed and it goes right across the box. Bennet gets a chance at a cross and it's out for a corner.

 

Just to let you know your thread is appreciated Majr I'm up in the middle of the night following it - thanks

 

Corner goes to the first post and gets cleared.

Ball stays in Plymouth's half and another long shot got to the keeper.

 

Good move with Bennett and Naismith leading to a free header for Chaplin but it goes wide.

 

Bennett fails to play Naismith and loses the ball but Rose wins it back and had a longshot which misses.

 

Chaplin taken down on the edge of the box and Pompey get a freekick.

 

Chaplin's going to take the freekick. Hits the wall and bounces clear for a Pompey throw.

 

Good move from Pompey but final ball wasted and out for a goal kick.

 

3 mintes of stoppage time.

 

Another freekick on the edge of the area. This will likely be the last chance of the game. If Pompey score they may yet stop Plymouth from getting promotion today.

 

Bennett to take, and goes wide. Game over 1-1.

 

These were evenly matched team with Pompey looking the more accomplished going forward but lacking a cutting edge while Plymouth were very hard to break down and took their chance when it came. It's a fair result.

 

Reads as if it was a good game with Pompey playing well for the most part but not capitalising.
