Colby Bishop's 12th goal of the season could not prevent League One leaders Portsmouth from sharing the points with lowly Fleetwood Town at Fratton Park.

There was very little for either set of fans to cheer about in the opening 45 minutes, but it was in stoppage time that Pompey took the lead with a penalty.

Pompey lacked energy against a defensive-minded Fleetwood, although they did hit the post through Abu Kamara before Bishop stepped up to slot a penalty after handball was given.

The goal did spur Fleetwood, who came out for the second half with more urgency and unexpectedly equalised in the 61st minute.

Josh Earl stabbed the ball home, after a Cod Army corner caused a scramble in Pompey's six-yard box.

Portsmouth threw plenty at it late on in a bid to win it, but Fleetwood hung on.
