Jose Antonio Reyes, who only joined Arsenal in January, equalised in the 50th minute, scoring from a Thierry Henry corner.
The Spaniard also hit the bar and sent the ball inches over in a first half that Portsmouth dominated.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger rested striker Dennis Bergkamp and midfielders Gilberto Silva and Robert Pires for the match.
