Adam McGurk has scored twice in eight appearances for Portsmouth this season

Portsmouth maintained their unbeaten start to the League Two season with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Barnet.

Andy Yiadom gave the visitors the lead, but Portsmouth levelled through Conor Chaplin shortly before half-time.

Adam McGurk fired Pompey ahead, having ignored an offside flag which was raised for team-mate Kyle Bennett.

Barnet were then reduced to 10 men as goalkeeper Jamie Stephens was shown a second yellow card, before Chaplin fired home to seal the win late on.

Portsmouth assistant manager Leam Richardson told BBC Radio Solent:

"You'll see certain results around the country - once a team goes behind, they normally stay behind - but our lads have got a bit of belief in them, a bit of solidity, they believe in the philosophy that we are trying to put in place. There is still a lot of work to be done; we won't get carried away.

"Its Conor Chaplin's day today. Adam McGurk who has come into the team has also done very well and it's a squad game. We won't win the league with 11 players.

"It's points on the board and we're still unbeaten. Over the past few years the club has gone through a process, it will get its credentials back and hopefully we can be a part of that."

Barnet manager Martin Allen told BBC London 94.9:

"I thought we played very well from start to finish. It's a great place for our players to come and play after playing in the Conference last year, to come to a stadium with support like this.

"I thought our players did our club proud, I think they did themselves proud.

"I'm not going to make any comment on the referee and his decisions. I think every Portsmouth supporter will say Barnet played well today."
