Skipper has mixed feelings after Pompey's point

Johnny Ertl says his elation at scoring the equaliser as Pompey came from behind against Wycombe was tempered by the team's inability to go on and claim all three points.

The Pompey skipper told the club website: 'We showed great character to come back after falling behind, but were disappointed that we couldn’t go on to win. I did really enjoyed the experience of scoring for the first time at Fratton Park, though.

'To get the goal in front of all those people was an amazing feeling and I’m glad I could make a contribution. This time I kept the celebration pretty low-key — I was just happy that I scored! I thought we could build on the goal and go on to get all three points, but unfortunately it wasn’t to be.

'But Wycombe are a decent side who play good football and showed why they’re high up in the table.'
