The striker headed home in the 25th minute for the only goal of the game in a 1-0 triumph over Watford at Fratton Park.
The Hornets were reduced to 10 men in the second half, yet Pompey were unable to capitalise, creating a nervy finale – but John Mousinho’s men stood form.
With two matches remaining, Pompey have retained their Championship spot. And here are our player ratings...
9. Adil Aouchiche - 4
Having produced his best display for Pompey at Norwich, it was a hugely disappointing follow up against Watford. Couldn’t get involved, was booked for kicking the ball away and, on the stroke of half-time, wasted a counter-attack when he passed to a Watford player rather than Murphy. Photo: Jason Brown
10. Josh Murphy - 8
(Replaced by Callum Lang on 87 mins) Unsurprisingly had a hand in Bishop’s goal, albeit with Selvik making a mess when dealing with his cross. One superb moment was when he won the ball deep into own half and surged into opposition penalty area only to shoot straight at keeper. Came off injured - 8 Photo: Jason Brown
11. Colby Bishop - 8
(Replaced by Kusini Yengi on 76 mins) Cleared enjoyed his Easter. Grabbed the Blues’ opener while on the ground and denied another by a fine Selvik second-half save, although may feel he should have scored. Eventually forced off with what appeared to be a calf issue. Photo: Jason Brown
