    • 16.55 FULL TIME. Portsmouth win 3-0 at Peterborough thanks to a brace from Huseklepp and another from Pearce. Pompey go to 16th in the table.
    • 16.49 Huseklepp, scorer of two goals, tees up Etuhu but he gets his shot all wrong.
    • 16.42 Now Lawrence is denied by a spectacular save from Lewis as Portsmouth threaten to make it four.
    • 16.41 GOAL! Peterborough 0-3 Portsmouth! Huseklepp puts the result beyond doubt as he spins his marker and bends a lovely shot inside the far post.
    • 16.36 Huseklepp is the next to enjoy a chance for Pompey as he receives a pass from Lawrence and forces Lewis into a save.
    • 16.34 Futacs wastes another chance as he fires wide following a pass from Mullins. That could have killed the game as a contest.
    • 16.32 Posh pour forward and Henderson is forced into an acrobatic save to turn Tommy Rowe's shot wide of the post.
    • 16.30 Marko Futacs drills a shot wide of the post for Pompey as they look to make it 3-0.

    • 15.43 GOAL! Peterborough 0-2 Portsmouth! Jason Pearce doubles the visitors' lead! He rises to meet a corner from Lawrence with a fine header.
    • 15.38 Portsmouth carve out another chance as Mullins volleys off target following a throw from Greg Halford. Michael Appleton's side are firmly in the ascendancy today.
    • 15.36 Lee Tomlin chips in with a chance for Peterborough but Portsmouth remain the better side.
    • 15.34 Etuhu, who has been very bright for Portsmouth this afternoon, spots Lewis off his line but doesn't execute his lob quite right as the ball goes over the bar.
    • 15.28 Liam Lawrence goes close. The midfielder forces Lewis into a fine sprawling save with his firm effort.
    • 15.25 Etuhu delivers a ball into the box and Huseklepp meets it but fails to beat Joe Lewis to claim his second of the game.
    • 15.23 Paul Taylor cuts in from the wing and lashes his shot wide of the post as Peterborough try to respond to Portsmouth's early goal.

    • 15.15 Goalscorer Huseklepp shoots wide as Portsmouth threaten again.
    • 15.08 GOAL! Peterborough 0-1 Portsmouth! Mullins with a cross that causes havoc in the box and Erik Huseklepp bundles the ball home. A great start for Pompey.
    • 15.07 Nice work from Portsmouth. Kelvin Etuhu breaks free and produces a fine cross, only for Posh to clear before Hayden Mullins can sweep the ball home.
    • 14.50 Peterborough and Portsmouth sit 16th and 17th respectively, with just two points separating the clubs at the start of play. Portsmouth, who on Tuesday were hit with a winding-up order from HM Revenue and Customs, have a game in hand though.
