Pompey's German Invasion Brings International Friendlies Back into Focus

Pompey's pre-season friendly in Germany drew praise from the team and fans alike after a goalless draw against SV Darmstadt.

The match saw 1,433 Pompey supporters travel to the Merck-Stadion am Bollenfalltor, making it one of the club's largest away followings.

Andy Cullen, Pompey's director of football operations, was among those who attended and expressed his delight at the fans' behavior, calling it 'brilliant'.

Cullen suggested that the success of this trip may lead to more international pre-season fixtures for the club in future.
