However, they were fortunate not to fall behind after only two minutes when Aaron Mokoena met Hayden Mullins’ free kick unmarked in the six-yard area but the Portsmouth man planted his header a couple of yards wide.
That apart, the Swans generally blunted a Pompey attack bravely led by David Nugent.
At the other end, despite the pace of Nathan Dyer down the right, they struggled – with Dyer more intent on a personal battle with man-of-the-match Hermann Hreidarsson.
