Conor McGrandles’ header in the third minute of time added-on early a dramatic point for the Addicks for a 2-2 scoreline on the south coast.
Abu Kamara’s stunning strike and Colby Bishop’s penalty had twice but the Blues in front, before being pegged back, but remain top of League One.
Nonetheless, there were some excellent displays amid the point – and here our our Pompey player ratings...
1. Will Norris - 3
Wore the captain’s armband but it was an awful display. Campbell’s opener went straight through him at the near post, then his rush of blood coming off his line gifted Charlton their second on 51 minutes. What’s more, the keeper’s usually excellent distribution deserted him. Photo: Jason Brown
2. Zak Swanson - 6
(Replaced by Terry Devlin on 65 mins) Still bringing himself up to speed after late arrival in pre-season, but some encouraging moments, particularly defensively. Loves a tackle, always competitive and it was a solid display. Photo: Jason Brown
3. Jordan Williams - 5
Moved from right-back to centre-half, partnering Shaughnessy, and was caught out a little for the first goal. Settled down, but didn’t look entirely comfortable with his different role, as you would imagine. Struggled. Photo: Jason Brown
4. Conor Shaughnessy - 6
Part of a brittle centre-half pairing and that usual composure was largely missing. Interesting battle with Ahadme at times and not at his best. Photo: Jason Brown
