Championship roundup: Devlin’s double for Portsmouth denies Swansea top spot

Terry Devlin’s double denied Swansea the chance to take top spot in the Championship as in-form Portsmouth won 3-1 at Fratton Park.
Devlin’s first-half goal looked like it was going to be enough for Pompey but Zan Vipotnik, the Championship’s top scorer last season, won and converted an 85th-minute penalty to set up a blockbuster finale.
Devlin’s smart finish from a corner in the second minute of stoppage time and Tommy Waddingham’s strike six minutes later made sure Pompey made it six without defeat, and Middlesbrough – who play on Wednesday – remained at the summit.
Alex Cochrane scored inside a minute as Birmingham buried Millwall with a first-half goal rush to earn a 3-0 win at St Andrew’s.
