Commentary
The full-time whistle goes, and Ipswich maintain their best Premier League start since 1994 with a 2-1 win over Fulham. The hosts were certainly made to work for the three points after going a goal down when Sessegnon rifled in a lovely left-footed shot on 55 minutes. Ipswich responded well and dominated large portions of the second half, but were unable to force a breakthrough until the 88th minute. And it was Ouattara who rose to score his first Premier League goal for the Tractor Boys when he sent a rocket past Leno from range to bring the game level. Ipswich weren't done there, though, and sent the Portman Road crowd into raptures just three minutes later when O'Shea nodded home from Clarke's free-kick. The result means the hosts have now won three of their first six league matches, while Fulham's search for their first league victory goes on. Ipswich recorded 1.15 xG in total, compared to the visitors' 1.81, and the hosts now look to a trip to Manchester City next weekend. Meanwhile, Fulham prepare to host Fulham in seven days' time. That's all for this one, thanks for joining us!
Yellow Card Christian Walton
FULL-TIME: IPSWICH TOWN 2-1 FULHAM
Akpom does brilliantly to win his side a free-kick by the corner flag in the Fulham half. That might be it for the visitors...

Fulham's Smith Rowe is booked for bringing down Akpom, who was looking to break on the counter.
WOW! WHAT A SAVE FROM WALTON! Fulham almost equalise as Tete nods the ball into the path of Kevin in the Ipswich box. The latter then shoots first-time with his right, only for Walton to keep the ball out with his left leg! What drama!
