A 3-2 victory against Premier League side Wolves means Ipswich are through to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup.

The Tractor Boys came from two goals down to secure their place.

There were goals from Omari Hutchinson and Freddie Ladapo before half-time.

Jack Taylor then produced the Blues' third goal of the night after the break.

Team boss Kieran McKenna told TownTV: “I’m just so proud of the players... What bravery.

"We’re 2-0 down after their first two attacks and we’d not started badly, we’d started quite sharply, but we’ve made a mistake and a Premier League side punishes you, then they score a set piece goal.

“It would have been easy at that point to take a backward step off the ball but we stayed brave and kept playing, trying to press and play through the opponent.

“It was an incredible effort to get back into the game and credit to the crowd, firstly for the turnout and then for the way they stuck with the players. But I think by now they know the players deserve that to be fair.

“We got back into the game and played really well in the first half. Terrific on the ball, great bravery, and what a goal to win it.”
