Ratings: Several 7s, but also a couple of 5s on a crazy afternoon for Leeds United against Portsmouth
Meslier: Should have done better with Sorensen’s leveller, beat him too easily. 5
Bogle: Caught out for Portsmouth’s equaliser and silly defending for Portsmouth’s penalty. 5

Hide AdRodon: Booked in the lead-up to Pompey’s second. His clearing header ahead of Lang’s goal wasn’t the best. Uncharacteristic by his standards. 5


Struijk: Cool penalty and showed aplomb. Orderly in main. 7
Firpo: Some decent forays forward. 7
Gruev: Cracker hit the bar early on. Several attempts. 7
Ampadu: Another to see an effort strike the crossbar. Good contest with Pack. 6
James: Won the early penalty and was a thorn at times for Ogilvie. 7
Rutter: Some intricate work, although did overdo it at times. 6
