Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Ipswich Town
It’s all over at Molineux and a last-gasp goal from Jack Taylor means all three points will be going back home with the away team. The game started in a naturally cagey fashion, with fouls going in all over the pitch. Once some football was able to be played, it didn't take long for Ipswich to open the scoring. Delap worked hard on the right to set up Hutchinson for a shot only a few yards out, which he made a mess of. The follow-up shot after the ball was cleared off the line came in from Chaplin, and after two deflections the ball rolled into the Wolves net. Wolves woke up after that, and their continual press was finally rewarded in the 72nd minute when substitute Guedes rolled a ball through to Cunha, who shot beyond Muric at his near post. That made the score level, and as the game trundled on towards the 90-minute mark, it looked like that would be that. However, the goals weren’t done just yet and Ipswich earned a corner in the 94th minute which Jack Clarke whipped in perfectly towards the back post. Two subs combined as Taylor rose highest at the back post before heading past Johnstone to win it for Ipswich. That goal sent the crowd and players alike into bedlam before the final whistle was blown. Tensions and emotions ran wild after the final whistle, with multiple Wolves players needing to be dragged off the pitch due to their outbursts. It’s worrying times at Wolves, but Ipswich will be delighted with their second win of the season against fellow strugglers. Wolves created 0.94 xG across the game, whereas Ipswich created 1.26 xG and it paid off for them as they ran away as winners. Thank you for joining this live text commentary, goodbye!

GOOOOOOALLLL!!!! IPSWICH HAVE DONE IT! Jack Taylor has fired Ipswich ahead at the death and he’s surely won them all three points. He met a corner at the back post, and directed his header brilliantly past Johnstone, and into the right side of the goal. 2-1 to Ipswich! WOW!

Davis goes down inside the box and claims a push in the back, with Simon Hooper waving away the claim straight away. The VAR checked and cleared the incident very quickly.
