Pressure remains as Ipswich and Derby draw
Ipswich Town and Derby County will continue their search for a win in the EFL Championship after they played out a dramatic 2-2 draw at Portman Road.
Ipswich had taken the lead shortly after the half-hour mark through a header from defender Jacob Greaves, nodding home a corner, but needed a 106th-minute goal to get something from the game.
But the Rams fought back in the second-half.
Leif Davis gave away a penalty for a handball, which was calmly converted by Carlton Morris 50 minutes in.
The visitors completed the comeback through Rhian Brewster, who scored his first goal for his new club in the 70th minute.
However, in the 16th minute of stoppage-time, Jack Taylor was brought down inside the box to win a penalty for his side, and for the second time this season, Ipswich was able to snatch a late equaliser from the spot late on, with Jack Clarke netting the all-important goal.
Both sides remain winless, with the pressure beginning to mount on Kieran McKenna, who will still be aiming for a promotion push this season.
The start of the Championship season has been far from ideal for McKenna's side, which has picked up just three points from its opening four games.
After this draw, Ipswich has dropped four points from winning positions, with only Wrexham (five) and Derby itself (nine) dropping more.
