A draw was never going really going to be enough for either side at Fratton Park.
However, given circumstances, it's a good point for Pompey and one that got away for Oxford.
Connor Ogilvie's early red card was very harsh. The reaction of the players and coaches on both sides showed no one was expecting it.
Oxford's Brodie Spencer was lucky not to receive a yellow card in the second half.
Referee Josh Smith had a tough day and looked visible affected by the backlash from the frustrated crowd. He was given an angry reception by fans waiting for autographs when he left Fratton Park
The real frustration for Pompey was they started the game really well and were looking dangerous in front of goal.
It took real character to fight back but the reality now is Portsmouth are likely to need to beat at least one side chasing automatic promotion to stay up.
