Benjani treble delights ‘Arry

BEJANI vindicated Harry Redknapp’s decision to reject the overtures of Newcastle as his hat-trick emphatically ended Portsmouth’s six-match goal drought at Fratton Park.

After going behind in four minutes Benjani scored his second treble of the season – including Pompey’s first home league goal since September 29 — to rekindle the club’s hopes of European football next season.

“I want them to play like that. They are good footballers and I want my players to play and that’s why I bring them here,” said Redknapp.
