Patrik Berger, in his Fratton debut, tested the Dutch side, who finished 3rd last season, early on and gave the home team the lead with a thunderous shot a minute before the break. It remained that way until ten minutes from the end when a pinpoint cross from Steve Stone connected with Yakubu's head to put the game out of reach for the side from De Kuip.
Much like the games played around the country in the Nationwide league, the heat took its toll and water breaks were common place.
Russian trialist Rossen Kirilov played his second game for Pompey as he aims for a contract and the game saw a trial for 23 year old goalkeeper Rune Pederson, a transfer target for Chelsea earlier this year who has won the Danish championship with FC Copenhagen and was last seen at Serie A minnows Modena.
