Pompey slip up at home
Posted Sunday, October 07, 2018 by PA
Portsmouth’s unbeaten start to the League One season came to an end after a wonder goal from Tom Eaves set Gillingham on their way to a shock 2-0 win at Fratton Park.
Alex Lacey also found the net as the Gills secured their first victory since August 11.
The Gills went ahead through Eaves in the 26th minute after he controlled the ball on his chest in the box before turning and smashing his effort into the back of the net.
The visitors then doubled their lead on the stroke of half-time as Pompey switched off at a low corner that Lacey fired in.
Pompey came out all guns blazing after the interval and a goalmouth scramble in the 49th minute resulted in Jamal Lowe having his shot blocked.
The hosts continued to throw everything at Gillingham’s penalty area and Lee Brown looked to have found Brett Pitman lurking in space, but defender Luke O’Neill headed away.
