Swansea, who made three changes from their 2-2 draw with Middlesbrough, struggled to create any meaningful chances in the first half – though they did have
Visiting goalkeeper Will Mannion shone in a lively contest, turning Irankunda’s early drive behind and producing a one-on-one save after the Australia international won the ball inside his own half, exchanged a one-two with Louza and surged inside the box.
The ever-creative Louza beat Mannion but not the woodwork with a second crossing attempt following a corner, and Docherty followed suit at the other end in the culmination of a
Portsmouth’s Championship survival prospects suffered a blow as Swansea City climbed into the top half of the table thanks to a 2-1 victory at Fratton Park.

There had been the sense Wrexham had been steadily finding their feet in the Championship going into the international window.
Without a defeat in four, there had been growing signs of the summer rebuild starting to take shape as a side.
Conversely, after an eye-catching start, Stoke had slipped a little, dropping points, dropping down the table – and only scoring twice in their four games without success.
