Rob's bizarre trick rescues Pompey

ROB ATKINSON scored a bizarre 'hat-trick' as he earned Portsmouth a dramatic point against relegation rivals Derby.

PORTSMOUTH..........2 Atkinson 71,90 DERBY..................

Yates 70, Atkinson 75 (og) 2

The centre-back had cancelled out Jerry Yates' opener before putting through his own goal in a manic five minutes of a crunch encounter.

Pompey had seen Colby Bishop's early penalty saved but secured a point when Atkinson found the net for the third time in stoppage time.

Head coach John Mousinho hailed the defender's performance.
