Aiden O'Brien scores his ninth goal of the season - and his third in successive games
An injury-time goal from Aiden O'Brien saw Portsmouth complete a remarkable comeback from 3-0 down to draw with struggling Fleetwood.
The visitors raced into a 2-0 lead inside the first 15 minutes thanks to goals from Anthony Pilkington and Harrison Biggins.
A rasping drive from Paddy Lane from outside the area added to their lead but Ronan Curtis reduced the arrears with a penalty in the final minute of the first half after Callum Camps was adjudged to have handled.
Marcuss Harness converted from close range with 10 minutes to go before substitute O'Brien finished coolly in the fifth minute of time added on after being teed up by fellow substitute George Hirst.
The point does little for Pompey's fading play-off hopes after results elsewhere saw them drop to 10 points off sixth place.
Fleetwood are now winless in seven but have drawn five of those matches and remain just two points above the relegation zone.
