Blues a 2-0 lead, yet the Australian internatio­nal shot wide with just the goalkeeper to beat.

Within 11 minutes, the Blues found themselves 2-1 behind.

Firstly, Lucas Akins’ shot deflected off the chest of Naylor to head in an opposite direction and enter the net. Then, on 20 minutes, Joe Powell surged into the box and Naylor, a former Burton player, slid in to block, only to divert it past the unfortunat­e Craig MacGillivr­ay. Harness’ second goal drew the teams level on 47 minutes, before Jack Whatmough, with his second career goal, finished from close range to restore the visitors’ lead.

Harness wrapped up the 4-2 victory with the best goal of them all. Finally, Pompey fans – and Jackett – have something to smile about this season. For now.
