Portsmouth 2 Man City 1

This was a good day, except the match didn’t kick of till a quarter past five! My mum came over to my house at 12:30 and we soon set of for Pompey. On route to the pub we decided to have a bite to eat, so I suggested we go to Weatherspoons in North End but as we got to the door bloody place was full, so on we went to find somewhere else to eat. The bridge Centre in North End was the place we ended up eating, egg, chips and beans was my lunch lovely, mum had cheese and onion roll oh yes and a cuppa.
So to the pub Football on one telly and Rugby on the other, so we go from one pub with no sport on the telly to another with two sports on two telly’s nice. Good atmosphere but strange to be watching other football scores come in on the telly at 3 o’clock onwards. So after our drinks we headed for the ground down dog shit ally (a lane that passes Fratton Park just watch where you tread)
So to the game 2007 has finally arrived we won a game and it was well deserved. With goals from Mendes and Kanu we finally made it past the 40 point mark be precise 41 and in seventh place. Pompey took the lead when Pedro Mendes, who later went off with a foot injury, fired in a stunner from 20 yards. It was as good as the one he scored last year against who? Oh yes Man City, his time on the pitch was cut short at the end of the first half when the England international caught the heel of Mendes and was shown a yellow card. The Pompey player writhed in agony on the pitch before he was carried off and replaced by Lauren. The second half City got one back with Corradi with a header. The game seemed to be swinging the way of City, but Pompey boss Harry Redknapp's tactical substitution that saw Andy Cole replaced by Kanu, swung the match back in the way of the home side.
The Nigerian had only been on the pitch for 10 mintes but was alert enough to latch on to Johnson's clever reverse and poke in what turned out to be the winner. I went home happy yes yes yes.
