Pompey assistant manager Leam Richardson was also dismissed for his part in the melee.Portsmouth turned the game around with two goals in a matter of moments. First, Gareth Evans' fine cross from the right forced a sliced own goal from Leon Legge in the 67th minute before Matt Tubbs turned home Gary Roberts' ball across goal two minutes later.Tubbs then sealed the result three minutes from time with a simple header after Kal Naismith hit the bar.Deep into injury time Evans was sent off for a nasty challenge on Elliot Omozusi.
