The whistle goes and Chelsea's late goals put the gloss on this result. Portsmouth were much better than the scoreline suggests.
90+3'
GOAL!! CHELSEA 4-0 PORTSMOUTH!! Lampard turns inside the Portsmouth box and fires a low finish home with virtually the last kick of the game!
90+2'
Portsmouth are unable to make good use of the set piece, and that is almost it for this match.
90+1'
Meireles goes into the book for a cynical trip on Futacs on the edge of the Chelsea box. Chance for a consolation?

Chelsea substitution: Romelu Lukaku replaces Torres, who has claimed two assists today.
87'
GOAL!! CHELSEA 3-0 PORTSMOUTH!! Pompey are caught flat-footed as Torres plays the ball into Ramires's path with space ahead of him. Ramires bombs forward and has Torres running with him but goes it alone and lifts a lovely finish over Henderson!
85'
Chelsea substitution: Ryan Bertrand replaces Ashley Cole.
84'
GOAL!! CHELSEA 2-0 PORTSMOUTH!! Ramires makes the game safe for Chelsea! Mata chips a ball into the box and Torres nods it into the Brazilian's path and this time his header does beat Henderson!
83'
Nice flowing move down the left from Portsmouth but it's broken up by Romeu who does job well.

Chelsea play the corner short and Lampard loses possession. Once again pompey have the opportunity but not the ability to mount a decent counter-attack.

80'
Kitson is booked for a late and clumsy tackle on Bosingwa.
79'

Moments after his onvolvement in an incident that got Terry booked, Williams sees a yellow card for his cynical obstruction of Cole.

Portsmouth win a corner. The delivery falls to Halfrod near the far post and the defneder heads over the bar! A good chance goes begging.
72'
First chance for Huseklepp to stretch his legs and run downt he wing with the ball. He makes good progress before Bosingwa tackles him at the expense of a throw.
70'
Portsmouth substitution: Ryan Williams makes his first FA Cup appearance as he replaces Rocha.
