Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. Ipswich Town FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Chelsea FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 10' Chelsea FC are deployed in a 4-2-3-1 today, looking to exploit space against Ipswich Town FC's 4-2-3-1 shape.
- 15' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 19' What a moment for Julio Enciso! That strike on 19 puts his side firmly in control.
- 24' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 29' It looks like no one’s ball. Ipswich Town FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 31' Ben Johnson adds to his 1 season tally! Ipswich Town FC lead 0-2 — and this changes everything.
- 36' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Ipswich Town FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

- 51' Ipswich Town FC have won 483 goals from 366 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 56' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Noni Madueke suffering a number of foals already.
