Cherries: Howe's men claim derby spoils (with video)
5:50pm Saturday 9th February 2013 in Sport
By Neil Perrett
SECOND-half goals from Lewis Grabban and Marc Pugh helped Cherries see off struggling Portsmouth at Dean Court today.
Grabban bagged his 13th goal of the season to settle any nerves among an expectant home crowd midway through the second period.
And Pugh broke Pompey’s brave resistance with a second 13 minutes from time as Cherries moved to within a point of the League One summit.
Matt Ritchie was drafted in for his full Cherries debut as boss Eddie Howe made one enforced change to his starting line-up.
Ritchie replaced injury victim Tommy Elphick and was deployed at left-back with Dan Seaborne moving across to partner Steve Cook in the centre of defence.
Pompey made no fewer than six changes with Therry Racon, Patrick Agyemang and John Akinde all handed debuts after joining the club this week.
Although Cherries made most of the running during the opening period, they found chances hard to come by as Pompey defended in numbers.
Lewis Grabban headed wide after being picked out by a Marc Pugh cross, the Cherries winger poking the ball through the legs of Yassin Moutaoakil to set up the opportunity.
A scissors kick from Agyemang trickled harmlessly wide before Harry Arter’s thunderous drive from 25 yards was charged down by a defender.
The paucity of the finishing was highlighted when Therry Racon wriggled free down the left, only to balloon his shot high over the crossbar.
Although Brett Pitman’s lofted pass over the Pompey defence found Grabban, he was unable to convert from the tightest of angles.
Shwan Jalal helped Adam Reed’s effort around the post before Cherries carved out the clearest opportunity on the stroke of half-time.
Simon Francis centred after working an opening down the right flank and Pitman saw his glancing header come back off the underside of the crossbar.
Pitman flicked another Francis cross past the post at the start of the second half before Jalal raced off his line to beat Agyemang to a Johnny Ertl through ball.
Pompey goalkeeper Simon Eastwood saved unconvincingly after Pitman had taken aim with a free-kick from 25 yards, the stopper scooping the ball away.
A swift break from the visitors ended with Agyemang heading wide with the goal at his mercy after Moutaoakil had crossed from the right.
Jalal was forced to tip over a rising drive from Dan Butler before Cherries finally made the breakthrough midway through the second half.
Grabban, picked out by Josh McQuoid’s cross, took a touch to control the ball before firing low into the bottom right-hand corner after 65 minutes.
Cherries doubled their lead after 77 minutes when Pugh slipped the ball past Eastwood following good work by Pitman to provide the assist.
Substitute Matt Tubbs went close to adding a third in stoppage time, with Eastwood sticking out his right leg to keep out the striker’s effort.
Cherries: Jalal, Francis, Cook, Seaborne, Ritchie, McQuoid, Arter (Hughes, 83), O’Kane, Pugh, Pitman (MacDonald, 90), Grabban (Tubbs, 82).
Unused subs: Fletcher, Fogden, Partington, Allsop (g/k).
Pompey: Eastwood, Moutaoakil, Gyepes, Rocha, Butler, Reed, Cooper (Walker, 82), Ertl, Racon (Wallace, 69), Agyemang (Keene, 65), Akinde.
Unused subs: Sodje, Harris, Webster, Smith (g/k).
Booked: Butler, Reed.
Attendance: 9,135 (including 1,338 visiting supporters).
Referee: Andre Marriner (West Midlands).

It was that easy to keep the ball.
Pompey were dire up front, clueless in midfield and not bad at the back considering they parked the bus.
Why would you do that when you got nothing to lose by having a go.
It was just a matter of time before we opened them up.

So no need for sour grapes Dorset Blue - you're not famous any more and we dont give a flyingf""k about you or your lot. We have more pressing matters like promotion to think about.

What a boring way for them to play football especially when they are so desperate for points. They started their time wasting early as well, after about five minutes. We are at our best when we play teams who also like to play football and Portsmouth weren't one of those teams. Very negative from them.
Agree with posts about off day any other team to play against us would have punished us very frustrating stuff as for u Dorset blue u only seemed to sing when u went 1-0 and 2-0 down great time to be a cherry utciad

Pompey never had a sniff all afternoon really, I think Jalal had a couple of saves to make. Arter, O'Kane, Pitman, McQuoid , all had off days for me, but sooner they had off day's today and we win, rather than against another team and we lose. Both sets of fans were quiet at times, but hardly surprising it as difficult to shout in between shivering. You only have to look at other results, we overcame a banana skin and came out with the 3 points and now we move on to Crewe and zero in on top spot... UTCIAD
Strange game today. Portsmouth came with a very negative game plan, which is odd considering only wins will do for them now. We weren't anywhere near our best but always thought we'd score eventually. Thought we looked very solid at the back considering how make shift our back 4 is at the moment. Given how much Cook must have on his mind right now, he was superb again today. Richie caught the eye at left back. One disappointment for me was mcquoid, just not good enough on based on todays showing. utciad

I was particularly frustrated with the interaction of Josh Mq and Simon F,especially first half,and not the first time this season,how many times did SF make an overlap down the right only for JM to ignore him,cut back in on his left and found nowhere to go except sideways or back.
The table now makes interesting reading,a few weeks ago (xmas,new year)we were playing catch-up on tranmere,donny,swind
on,sheff.u,brentford
,mk,not only have we caught up with some, we have overtaken the others;how long before we take over those now(just)above us.

A solid result against a potential banana skin, as they have to put out a different team each week! However we now have players with experience & belief plus goals around the front line. A great formula.
Can't believe so many results went our way again this week, its a bit of a dream!

I see from one of the posts above there was fighting outside the ground after the game today. Don't suppose it would be your lot would it.
Is it true that the F A have stated that if your club have not sorted itself out by the end of the season you will be expelled from the football leagues?? I dont want to see that happen to any club but you have been warned.
Sorry to all you BOURNEMOUTH FANS for taking up your space to answer this pompey fan. But he is such a joke on our site.

abc100 wrote:If we were losing possession en I would have agreed with you, our attacking players were prevented from doing so purely because of the defensive role hat Pompey played - all options apart from our back four was man marked, this is why Arter and o, Kane played the ball back so many times which was the right thing to do to keep possession and start all over again. The only chance of scoring today was by playing the patient game and provide the defence splitting through ball on the ground at a diagonal angle. That yourself and others have said we won this and had 60. - 70% of the game so we should fear any defence that we meet, our defenders won't have an easier game for the rest of the season . My concern is Tubbs, he is only getting minutes but when he does he often finds himself one on one with the keeper - and misses, we will go to the Championship but I think we will be leaving him behind, but until then we can all enjoy the ride

Whenever a team cannot break down their opponents it seems they must have 10 men behind the ball. It may look that way, but the truth is lack of attacking ideas. Every team will defend if they can't get the ball and Pompey weren't good enough to win and keep the ball. We simply made very very hard work of it.

When possible, I would want to see Ritchie on the left wing. He is left footed and the worst ball to defend is the one pulled back from the goal line, away from the defence and towards the forwards.
