Pompey Held to Goalless Draw at Charlton
Pompey secured a second consecutive clean sheet but were unable to break the deadlock against Charlton at The Valley, finishing 0-0. The team struggled in the first half, with Millenic Alli missing a clear opportunity against his former side. Charlton dominated much of the second half, creating several chances of their own. Despite the pressure, neither side managed to find a winner.
Pompey Women dominate Plymouth with 4-0 win
Pompey Women returned to league action at Home Park with a convincing 4-0 victory over Plymouth. Goals came from Arabella Suttie before half-time and Kerry Beattie, while Zoe Barratt added a brace in the second half to secure all three points. Manager Jay Sadler made three changes to the lineup that had won the previous week’s League Cup match, reinstating goalkeeper Hermione Cull. The hosts created early chances but the Blues controlled the game and finished strongly.
