Unbeaten Brighton held at home by Ipswich

Unbeaten Brighton were left frustrated after being held to a goalless Premier League draw by Ipswich at the Amex Stadium.

The home side dominated possession but clear cut chances were at a premium and it was the visitors who came closest to finding a winner on the south coast.

Liam Delap broke forward early in the second half and, with no team-mates up in support, just kept running and burst into the box, but his fierce shot across goal came back off the post.

It would have been a goal completely against the run of play with Fabian Hurzeler’s side enjoying much the better of the play in the first half and the start of the second.

The closest they came to a goal, though, was 10 minutes before the break when Georginio Rutter ran onto Yankuba Minteh’s cute pass and worked space in the box but saw his shot parried by Ipswich goalkeeper Arijanet Muric.

It fell to Kaoru Mitoma six yards out and the winger looked certain to score but Muric sprung up to repel the rebound as well.

The Seagulls continued to press for the decisive goal, with Evan Ferguson curling narrowly wide late on, but it would not come.

Brighton stay unbeaten with two wins and two draws from their first four games, while Ipswich are still searching for their first win back in the Premier League.
