Ryley Towler's double helped Portsmouth fight back to beat promotion-chasing Bolton in a pulsating game at Fratton Park.
A strike from Dion Charles early in the second half looked to have set in-form Bolton on course for victory.
But centre-back Towler struck twice in the space of 11 minutes - his first Pompey goals - before striker Colby Bishop sealed the comeback win.
In an even first half, Ronan Curtis came closest to putting Pompey in front, chipping over from a tight angle, while Manchester United loanee Shola Shoretire also saw an effort blocked for Bolton.
The visitors took the lead on 48 minutes when a corner was forced home by Charles, but Pompey drew level 17 minutes from time as Towler headed in Joe Rafferty's free-kick.
The home side took the lead with six minutes to play when Towler poked in his second before Bishop's deft flick in the 87th minute sealed the points.
