LIVE Pompey v Stevenage
It's Louis Thompson who levels against his old side. Reid crosses from the right and it's the Blues old boy who flings his body at the ball and heads home.
Knocking the door
Pompey knocking the door for a second here and need to put that daylight between the sides while they have this pressure.
What a save Norris! Piergianni heads a free-kick back across goal and Roberts cracks a sweet volley but it's a superb reflex save from the keeper to tip the ball over.
Huge chance for a second as Bishop puts Kamara clean through. The Norwich loanee streaks about half the length of the pitch but it's a poor finish with Butler chasing and he skews the ball wide.
Lovely stuff
Lovely opener for the Blues. Lane turns the ball over and some great football between Bishop, Robertson and eventually the winger who rifles home a low finish! 1-0.
