Ipswich Town 1-1 Leicester City: Five Things We Learned

The Foxes continued their trend of going on the road and picking up a point after a 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town. It was a tale of two halves yet again as Leicester were much the better side in the first half, but they couldn't overcome heavy sustained pressure from the home side and had to settle for a point.

A 1-1 draw at Portman Road against high-flying Ipswich Town, in the scheme of things, looks like a good result, but with the Foxes in the relegation zone and ahead up until the final 15 minutes of the match, it felt like two points lost, rather than a point gained.

The Foxes were largely on top in the first half, having good chances through Harry Winks and Caleb Okoli, but it was goal-shy Patson Daka who swept Leicester in front, volleying home inside the 18-yard box from a Luke Thomas free-kick.

The suspected second-half bombardment on the Foxes' goal duly came as the home side put massive pressure on a confidence-shorn Leicester backline, and though they battled to preserve the lead, the Tractor Boys earned a point through a Sindre Walle Egeli strike on 76 minutes.

Andy Moore looks at five things we learned from the draw at Ipswich Town.
