Summarised from 2 outlets · 17 reports · Updated 2 Nov, 11:51 · Archive

Portsmouth drew 0-0 with Burnley in a match that highlighted both their defensive strengths and attacking weaknesses.

Portsmouth drew 0-0 away at Burnley on Saturday. Boss John Mousinho described the result as 'a really good point' against a side that recently competed in the Premier League.

Portsmouth's defence was solid, though Mousinho felt they conceded too many chances. In attack, they wasted several promising positions and lacked quality in the final third. Midfielder Josh Murphy showed flashes of promise in his return from injury. Striker Ebou Adams, who remained on the bench, expressed frustration at his continued lack of playing time.

Marlon Pack's first-half volley was disallowed after Ryan Kavuma-McQueen was judged to have fouled the Burnley goalkeeper. BBC Radio Solent's analysis suggested this was an extremely harsh decision. Portsmouth have scored 17 goals in 14 games across all competitions this season.
