Sounds like an end to end game, with Lincoln City playing their part. At last we take one of our chances and score. We need a second goal as soon as we can to strengthen our lead. Whisky glass being refilled as I type !!
Big chance for Ryan Williams, who fires just over after latching onto Marcus Harness’s flick. 49th minute.
Attempt missed. Ross McCrorie (Portsmouth) left footed shot from the centre of the box is high and wide to the left. Assisted by Ronan Curtis with a cross. 72 minutes.
Attempt missed. John Marquis (Portsmouth) right footed shot from outside the box is just a bit too high. Assisted by Ross McCrorie following a fast break. 80 minutes.
Shocking challenge by Jason Shackell on Ryan Williams, leaves the Pompey player laying on the pitch. No booking though !? 87th minute.
Final whistle. 1-0 to Pompey. Not a pretty match to watch according to the Radio Solent commentators, but never mind, three points are 3 points
A good result at last. if not a good match to watch it does sound as if Lincoln came to play - not just defend. Time for breakfast in this part of the world. I hope the thought of three points has a positive effect on your cold Woops! Thanks for the commentary.
