Premiership '07/08 : Everton (a) 1-3

The worst possible start for Pompey, with Yakubu scoring after just 47 seconds.

Papa Bouba Diop is challenged by Everton midfielder Steven Pienaar.

Jermain Defoe equalises for Pompey in the 38th minute...

...and celebrates.

'Not to be' for Pompey on the day, although a better overall display than last season's at Goodison Park. Pompey are still on target for 62 points in 2007/08.
