Portsmouth come from behind for 4-1 win at Fratton ParkSheffield Wednesday see off Stoke 2-0 despite early red
Callum Lang scored a sensational four goals as Portsmouth came from behind to thrash Coventry 4-1 at Fratton Park, giving Frank Lampard, the visitors’ manager, a further reminder of how tough a division the second tier can be.
Norman Bassette had given Coventry the lead inside 150 seconds but Lang – who had not previously scored a professional hat-trick – turned them around with a magnificent individual performance. It added some weight to Pompey’s survival hopes – they started the day in the drop zone – and gave them a fourth home game on the spin without defeat.
