Summary
- Portsmouth secured a vital win with a 97th-minute goal.
- They followed up with a 2-0 victory against promotion-chasers Ipswich.

Portsmouth dramatically escaped the Championship relegation zone in recent days, thanks to crucial late goals and a strong performance. The team secured a vital 97th-minute winner at Middlesbrough, just as they were set to drop into the bottom three.
This was swiftly followed by an impressive 2-0 victory against promotion-chasing Ipswich Town on Tuesday night. These results have significantly boosted Pompey's survival hopes.
The team now holds a four-point advantage over third-bottom Oxford United with just four games left to play. Their remaining fixtures include home games against Leicester and Birmingham, alongside away trips to Coventry and Stoke.
Fans are left to ponder whether enough points have been secured, and how this potential survival compares to last year's great escape.
