Portsmouth 1-0 Ipswich Town - Match Report
Saturday, 21st Dec 2019 17:03
Ronan Curtis’s second-half goal was enough to see Portsmouth to a 1-0 victory over 10-man Town at Fratton Park. The Irish international found the net from 20 yards five minutes after the break and Town were unable to find an equaliser before skipper Luke Chambers was red-carded for a second bookable offence with two minutes remaining.
Chambers and Toto Nsiala returned to a three-man backline as manager Paul Lambert made four changes from last week’s 2-1 home defeat by Bristol Rovers.
Chambers, who missed the last two with a neck injury, was on the right of the trio with Nsiala in the middle and Luke Woolfenden on the left.
