The Black Cats took a first-half lead when Abdoullah Ba set up Jack Clarke to score his 13th goal of the season with an excellent strike.

Ipswich drew level before the interval, though, when the ball deflected into the path of Kayden Jackson to score. Conor Chaplin then headed home the hosts’ winning goal 15 minutes from time when he was left unmarked to convert Leif Davis’ free-kick.

Here's how the game played out:

Ipswich vs Sunderland

63' Big save from Patterson

Ipswich are starting to build some momentum now.

Patterson has just made another big save to deny Jackson after Chaplin sent the Ipswich striker through on goal.

65' First change for Sunderland

Aouchiche replaces Ba for the visitors

67' Huge chance for Aouchiche

That should be 2-1 to Sunderland.

Bellingham managed to get a toe on Hladky's pass, diverting the ball to Clarke.

The winger then set up Aouchiche who missed the target from close range.

68' Three changes for Ipswich

ON: Sarmiento, Hutchinson and Ball

OFF: Jackson, Burns and Travis

72' Ipswich subs looking bright

Sarmiento has looked lively on Ipswich's right since coming on. O'Nien had to block his cross from the flank, before Ekwah got in the way of another effort from the Ipswich winger.

The hosts lead.

Aouchiche gave away a free-kick on the left and was booked.

Davis then delivered an in-swinging free-kick which Chaplin headed home, unmarked in the Sunderland box.

2-1.

79' Big chance for Sunderland

Sunderland almost responded immediately there as Alese's low cross was left by both Bellingham and Aouchiche who appeared to get in each others' way.

81' Ipswich hit the post

That was almost 3-1 as Davis' in-swinging free-kick from the left was met by Woolfenden at the back post. The defender's effort hit the woodwork.

Now Hume goes into the book after a nasty clash with Sarmiento.

Rusyn replaces Pritchard for the visitors.

86' Ipswich penalty appeal

Ipswich look like they had a strong case for a penalty there after O'Nien send Hutchinson flying into the air.

Nothing given.
