TWO goals in three second half minutes from Mike Flynn earned Newport County AFC a vital three points at Portsmouth.
The 2-0 win is the Exiles' second victory on the road in League Two this season and lifts them into the play-off places.
Flynn swept home from Ryan Jackson's cross on 65 minutes and then doubled the lead on 68 minutes to condemn new Pompey boss Richie Barker to a miserable first afternoon in the Fratton Park hotseat.
Justin Edinburgh's men are up to fourth in the table, just three points behind leaders Oxford United, but did lose Conor Washington to an injury in the first half.
