MATCH EVENTS

1’: We’re off!

9’: GOAL FULHAM!! Decordova-Reid finds Harry Wilson alone in tons of space at the edge of the box! Walton comes way off his line to try and smother the chance but Wilson easily sidesteps him and puts it into an open net from twenty yards!

15’: Ballo-Touré’s cross takes a deflection off a block and slices towards goal and hits the bar!

17’: SAVE! Marek Rodák makes a bad pass that Jackson picks up, Jackson runs toward goal and fires from wide but Rodák touches it past the far post!

18’: Donacien fires wildly and sends the ball to the back rows.

31’: Pereira fires a belter from distance and pulls it just wide of the top corner.

32’: Marcus Harness carded for a cheap pull-down on Cairney

38’: Jack Taylor gets a card for a rough foul on Jack Taylor, Saša Lukić gets carded, probably for complaining about the lack of card before the ref had time to produce it

44’: SAVE! Bassey catches the keeper off guard with a sudden shot! The keeper sees it late and he makes a flappy punch at it that deflects it into the post and away!

HT Ipswich Town 0-1 Fulham Fulham with the one goal after a collapse at the back for Ipswich.

81’: SAVE!! Decordova-Reid smacks a volley from close range and Walton has to react quickly and dives to his right to keep it out!

86’: Raúl Jiménez carded for throwing a ball on the field, not realizing that play had already restarted with a different ball
