Did Portsmouth keeper have 'stunt double' in South Coast derby?
Supporters were left baffled during the South Coast derby on Sunday after two Portsmouth goalkeepers looked so alike that some thought a stunt double had been sent on.

The moment came in the first half of Pompey's fiery clash with Southampton, when starting keeper Nicolas Schmid was forced off through injury.

He was replaced by deputy stopper Ben Killip, who embraced his team-mate as the change was made.

But for many fans watching at home, it looked like the same player had simply jogged off, turned around, and run back on again.

Both Schmid and Killip sport curly blond hair and full beards, making the swap almost comically confusing.

Despite the unusual scenes, the derby itself ended in a tense 0-0 draw at St Mary's, with neither side able to find a breakthrough in a fiercely contested Championship clash.
