Buendia, Alex Tettey and Marco Stieperman­n missed out through injury.

Ben Godfrey, usually a centre-half, went in at left back replacing hamstrung Jamal Lewis with Hanley wearing the skipper’s arm-band for the short time he was on.

Teemu Pukki, Tim Krul Mario Vrancic, Timm Klose, Onel Hernandez and Max Aarons all dropped to the bench.

Rhodes was looking to impress on his rare start for Norwich and had the ball in the net on nine minutes.

On loan Sheffield Wednesday striker Rhodes pounced on a loose ball by Tom Naylor and chipped over keeper Craig MacGiilivr­ay to put the ball in the net, but he was ruled to have fouled in the process.

Rhodes had another shot blocked and Godfrey’s follow up went straight to the keeper.

Cantwell went close for City after bursting through middle and hitting a shot on the run and had another well saved by macGillvra­y.

Pompey full-back Anton Walkes made a well-timed challenge to deny Srbeny and centre-half Matt Clarke put in a vital block on a

Felix Passlack shot, while Macgillvra­y was at full stretch to save from another Cantwell effort

Pompey were without midfielder Ben Close while new signing Andy Cannon was cup-tied.
