Tottenham vs Ipswich: Ipswich Town secured their first Premier League win in the 2024-25 season with two half goals from Sammie Szmodics and in-form striker Liam Delap.

The Ipswich Town side raced into a first-half lead after Szmodics’ clever overhead kick and Delap’s beautiful finish.

The two first-half goals from Ipswich Town left the Tottenham team in a horrible situation. In the second half, the Spurs had chances to come back but were wasteful.

There were boos from the home side, and within four minutes of the restart, Tottenham Hotspur had a goal via a Dominik Solanke attempt. However, it was ruled out by VAR for handball. 

Spurs midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur’s header found the back of the net, but it wasn’t enough for the Spurs side to secure a comeback.

In the extra minute of the second half, Solanke had a goal attempt which was the closest to equalizer for the Spurs side. 

However, the English striker’s shot was blocked by Ipswich Town goalkeeper Arijanet Muric.
