Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Portsmouth FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' Ben Close has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 5 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' With 0 assists to his name this season, Lyle Taylor is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Portsmouth FC.
- 15' Matt Clarke has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 20' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 25' Patrick Bauer needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 30' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Josh Cullen suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' Portsmouth FC fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
- 40' A quiet spell here at The Valley Stadium. Portsmouth FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
- 41' The Nigeria central midfielder Joe Aribo breaks the deadlock on 41 minutes. 1-0!
- 45' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Ronan Curtis makes it 1-1.
- 46' Charlton Athletic FC make a change. Krystian Bielik trudges off to be replaced by Ben Reeves on 46 minutes.
- 46' Sensational shot from Ronan Curtis. Portsmouth FC is back in the lead.
- 51' Goal! Lyle Taylor scores his 59 goal in 382 matches.
- 52' That is a Yellow card for Portsmouth FC. Oliver Hawkins will be fuming at that decision.

- 58' The supporters are chanting for Tariqe Fosu. He replaces Jonny Williams on 58 minute.
- 61' Dion Donohue has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ben Close on 61 minute.

- 69' Portsmouth FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 69.
- 74' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Portsmouth FC that had 375 games and scored 530 goals.
- 75' The Portsmouth FC bench stirs into life. Gareth Evans is withdrawn and Brett Pitman gets his opportunity.
- 80' It looks surprising Portsmouth FC does not make any changes. Naby Sarr has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

- 89' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Charlton Athletic FC and Portsmouth FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .

- 2-1 the final result. Portsmouth FC will be bitterly disappointed.
