Lawrence gives Pompey lift

Liam Lawrence scored one and set up another as Portsmouth hammered npower Championship side Bolton 3-0.

Portsmouth went ahead after six minutes with a lightning quick counter-attack that ended when Izale McLeod crossed for Kieran Djalili to power home.
The lead was doubled five minutes later when Lawrence, one of only two senior players still at the club, curled a free-kick over the Bolton wall and past goalkeeper Adam Bogdan after Mark Davies had fouled Tal Ben Haim, the other senior player still at Portsmouth.
Lawrence was key to the third goal too, sending in an inviting left-wing cross for Connor Clifford to stoop to head home.
Bolton's best chance of the second half came after 77 minutes, but substitute Marcos Alonso could only fire over from 18 yards after controlling well.
