A spirited performance but defeat against a newly promoted Ipswich who, on current form, look like they’ll sail past City into the promised land!
Max O’Leary appears to be the villain of the piece for failing to deal with Broadhead’s well struck shot that was the difference between the sides. Fans should cut him some slack in my opinion with his acrobatic save just before the goal and another one-handed stop from Davis at the start of the second half which kept City in the game.
Cornick was unluck to see his late effort strike the post, goalkeeper’s bank than spin along the line in similar fashion to that effort from Alan Walsh in 1989 League Cup semi before being cleared.
DaveFevs joined Ian Mark and DaveP in discussing the match action and thoughts on off the pitch matters. Fevs very much the stat man points out that City’s Xg was marginally better than Ipswich whilst Ian quotes from Wyscout that we played more forward passes and had more crosses than the visitors but fewer touches in the box - what do we make of that?
