Wycombe 2 – 0 Portsmth

Anis Mehmeti scored one and made the other in Wycombe’s 2-0 victory over Portsmouth which lifted them into the top half of Sky Bet League One.

It was just what the Chairboys deserved for a largely dominant performance against an out-of-sorts Pompey, who allowed a chance to move into the play-off places to pass them by.

Wycombe were ahead after 13 minutes when David Wheeler battled to win a long ball before passing to Brandon Hanlan, who laid off for Mehmeti to hammer a first-time effort into the top corner.

Alfie Mawson then came within a whisker of doubling the hosts’ lead five minutes before half-time when his shot hit the post after Ryan Tafazolli nodded the ball into his path.

Portsmouth improved in the second half but the closest they came to finding an equaliser was when Wycombe goalkeeper Max Stryjek tipped Reeco Hackett’s shot wide in the 74th minute.

Pompey goalkeeper Griffiths then saved well from Lewis Wing before Garath McCleary made the game safe for Wycombe with two minutes remaining, stroking in Mehmeti’s cutback.

Which areas were accessed as part of Access All Areas?

Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth first arrived at Adams Park with Sky Sports’ David Craig – who was sporting a questionable leather jacket as he paid homage to the man known as ‘Wild Thing’ – and discussed the build-up to the historic match.

Sky Sports cameras were then permitted to film the exchange of the teamsheets between referee Scott Oldham, his assistants, Ainsworth’s assistant Richard Dobson, Wycombe captain Alfie Mawson and Portsmouth manager Danny Cowley.

Sky Sports’ Don Goodman then spent time with Oldham, who explained the day-to-day life of an EFL referee.

Cameras installed inside both the dressing rooms captured animated half-time and full-time team talks, while Ainsworth was interviewed seconds before the start of the second half and Cowley discussed Pompey’s improvement midway through the second half.

What’s next?

Both teams are back in action at 3pm on Saturday December 10. Wycombe travel to the LNER Stadium to face Lincoln, while Portsmouth take on Accrington at the Wham Stadium.
