Struggling Portsmouth ground out their first home win since Boxing Day with a narrow victory over AFC Wimbledon.

Ryan Taylor scored the only goal as he bravely met Daniel Alfei's right-wing cross to loop a header into the net.

The Dons had seen a penalty appeal waved away after two minutes when Danny Hylton appeared to be tripped in the box, but a free-kick was given instead.

Alan Bennett's point-blank header was also saved and Luke Moore's shot cleared off the line as Pompey held on.
