Re: Portsmouh Emirates FA Cup 2nd rd Match Thread
Pompey did to us what we did to them in the league game earlier, didn't give us a second on the ball when we tried to play it about on the ground, so it kept going up in the air and what happened next was up to the wind .....
Their goal was a great bit of right wing play followed by a clinical finish from inside left - if the two had been linked by the winger chipping the ball over the players in the box instead of it somehow bobbling through everybody, it would have been a truly great goal - as it was, it was a bit on the jammy side.
After all that's been said about Josh W this season, I thought he was peripheral at best yesterday. Kee and Crooks, McConville and Mingoia all more visible but not quite putting it together. And for me, Wright was the star of a usually composed but occasionally shaky defence, and probably our m-o-m.
When Josh was subbed off, I was certain we'd get a penalty which would then have gone over the roof of the Fratton End stand .....
Hey ho, let's concentrate on the league - On Stanley On!
