We edged the first half and were far the better team in the second - should have been more than 1 up when it came to the last 10 mins and Ipswich got on top. Rode luck twice but we should have been out of sight by then to be fair to us.
Immense performance from the lads, and hard to pick a weak link as we ground at them and put them under constant pressure. Mattock back to how we know he can play, Thompson was fantastic, constantly in the way and comfy on the ball when needed. With injuries early on, he's been an unseen possibly immense signing of the summer with championship potential. Both centre backs disciplined and not a foot wrong. Barlaser a class above for 80 mins, raking the passes around, Crooks the proverbial octopus - what a pair those two are when on song. And the other forwards hard working, pressing from the front.
This is a talented and on song Ipswich side that fancied their chances and be completely floored them for long periods, first 25 mins and first 35 of 2nd half. Should have been a more convincing score, but we'll take that. Just got to take heart and belief in ourselves and keep it going. The link of Mattock and Adeleken is still forming but could be immense by the way
