Portsmouth's 3-2 win over Barnsley earned them promotion to the Championship.

John Mousinho hailed Portsmouth’s “remarkable achievement” after the come-from-behind 3-2 win over Barnsley at Fratton Park secured the League One title and promotion to the Championship.

But the hosts hit back in the final seven minutes with Colby Bishop scoring from the penalty spot and Conor Shaughnessy heading home the winner."It was such a strange feeling, because we were so poor for 85 minutes, so my feelings for the entirety of the game was one of frustration. Then to turn the game around like that, and to do it so quickly with everything that happened at the end, is very difficult to describe.

Boss Neill Collins told the club’s official website: “There are a lot of positives. But the biggest frustration is that all those positives didn’t add up to what I thought would be a deserved victory.
