Striker Jermain Defoe starred for Portsmouth as they came back from a goal down to beat Middlesbrough.

Boro had taken the lead when Mido was found by striker partner Afonso Alves and drove in a low shot.

Pompey bounced back in determined fashion and the impressive Defoe lashed in a shot after Peter Crouch’s pass.

Boro were denied a penalty after Nadir Belhadj appeared to push Stewart Downing and Defoe secured the win when he volleyed in.

Portsmouth had gone into the game having not won at home since 29 March and almost went behind after four minutes.
