Myles Peart-Harris helps Portsmouth maintain top spot with win over Cambridge
Posted Wednesday, February 14, 2024 by PA
A first goal of the season from Myles Peart-Harris helped Portsmouth maintain top spot with a 3-1 win over Cambridge.
The opening half-hour saw Pompey dominate, but Cambridge’s confidence grew and they were rewarded with the opener after 38 minutes.
A corner was headed goalwards by Danny Andrew, and Will Norris could not keep the ball out.
That seemed to spring Pompey into life, and within six minutes the hosts had equalised.
Kusini Yengi was brought down in the box, but he dusted himself down to send the goalkeeper the wrong way.
Cambridge started out the better side in the second half, with Pompey struggling to get any fluency.
But after 59 minutes, they found their spark and went ahead.
Good build-up play saw Peart-Harris slide in to score from a Paddy Lane cross.
Cambridge pushed hard for an equaliser, but Pompey got a third after 71 minutes when Abu Kamara smashed home via the crossbar.
