Here's how Middlesbrough's players rated in the 2-2 draw with Portsmouth:

5 Dieng: Bad mistake led to Portsmouth’s second goal and the goalkeeper didn’t look at all settled throughout first half. Didn’t have anything to do in the second.

6 Dijksteel: Couple of sloppy touches in the first half but solid and asked questions of Portsmouth’s defence in second.

7 Ayling: Showed his versatility by moving across to centre-half. Solid display.

6 Clarke: Involved in the mistake for the second goal but Dieng more at fault. Scored first equalising goal and, mistake aside, his usual self at the back.

5 Engel: Unconvincing display from the left-back. Several heavy touches and didn’t offer much going forward.

7 Hackney: Best display of the season so far for the Teessider. Was a driving force in midfield in the second half.

6 Morris: Solid if not spectacular. Sat deeper and allowed Hackney to push on. Went close to a goal early in second half.

6 Jones: Decision making and final ball let him down throughout but won last minute penalty.

7 Azaz: Assist for Boro’s goal and looked likeliest route to second equaliser. Created good chances for Latte Lath and Morris and it was a surprise that he was first to be withdrawn.

6 Burgzorg: Got himself in promising positions and was a goal threat but failed to take his chances.

6 Latte Lath: Missed a glorious chance late in first half. Frustrating afternoon for striker but never stopped running and trying to force equaliser.

Substitutes:

8 Conway (for Azaz, 70): Made a huge impact from the bench. Involved in move that led to Hackney chance, dragged shot just wide then scored equaliser from spot.

Barlaser (for Morris, 81): N/A

Hamilton (for Engel, 81) NA

Man of the Match: Norris. Frustrated Boro’s fans with time-wasting but also frustrated Boro’s attackers with a string of excellent saves.
