Pompey missed the chance to pull clear of the relegation places as they turned in a dismal display, with the hosts ending their own six-game winless run in style in front of a delighted Pride Park.
Kane Wilson, Eiran Cashin and Ebou Adams all struck before half-time as the Rams ran rampant.
The visitors enjoyed plenty of possession, but never threatened to get back into the contest and the result was put beyond doubt with Marlon Pack’s own goal midway through the second half.
Mousinho said: “It’s difficult to figure out where that came from – we weren’t expecting it. Going into the game I felt pretty confident.
“We’ll have to unpick it over the weekend and go again. A bit of a strange one.
“It wasn’t very good, to say the least. We got exactly what we deserved and maybe got off slightly light.
