66' Backpass free-kick Jones picks up a clear backpass to give Pompey an indirect free-kick in the six-yard box. Think Shearer in Euro 96 but not the same outcome as Ronan Curtis hammers his effort into the mass of bodies on the line
71' Ryan Williams replaces Michael Jacobs, and Andy Cannon replaces Bryn Morris. Must admit, I hadn't realised Bryn Morris was playing
76' John Marquis shot deflected over after good work from Andy Cannon - and it’s off the post from Sean Raggett from Cameron Pring’s delivery!
Kenny Jackett is clearly so confident of promotion this season that he's decided to give every-one else a sporting head start
82' Attempt missed. Ellis Harrison (Portsmouth) header from the centre of the box is close, but misses to the right. Assisted by Callum Johnson with a cross.
89' Pompey score at last !! Portsmouth 1, Wigan Athletic 2. Ellis Harrison (Portsmouth) left footed shot from the centre of the box to the top left corner. Assisted by John Marquis.
Always thought this would be a very difficult match and so it has proved. Are the Pompey players that bad, or are KJs tactics rather lacking. Interesting to note that the assist came from Marquis. Two up-front Mr Jackett!!
Final whistle goes, and it's 1-2 to Wigan. We only played well in the first 10 minutes, and the last 10 minutes of the game. Not really good enough !
