Check out Neil Allen’s Pompey match ratings from the Blues’ 2-1 defeat at the hands of Championship Bristol City in the third round of the FA Cup.

Famara Diedhiou put the hosts in front on 20 minutes, before full-back Callum Johnson equalised on the stroke of half-time.

But it wasn’t to be, with Chris Martin firing home the Robins’ winner against the run of play with seven minutes to spare.
