Have you seen that match summary under the video? Nonsense. Unlikely to score until Haynes scored? We'd missed about 4 sitters and up until then and were all over them at that point. Even in the first half we created the better openings. RCC didn't have much to do all night.
I don't think they saw it. I know stats don't always tell the full story, but I think they did last night. Far more possession, 25 efforts on goal to their 12, far more of those on target, 13 corners to their 4. Ah well, it doesn't really matter but that did wind me up a bit!
We committed 1 cynical foul (for the free kick the goal was scored from rightly a yellow) they committed 4/5 cynical fouls/body checks 0 yellows for them.

Looking at that shot from the pompey end you can see his body position as he falls is more like someone pushed him in the back rather than caught his ankles as Vlad crossed his path behind. May have been some minimal contact but he dived to ensure the pen.
