Premier League LIVE: Ipswich Town 2-2 Aston Villa – live text, radio commentary, team news, score, report and statistics

Ipswich got good value for their point, which took them out of the relegation zone.

The wait for a first win since returning to the Premier League continues, although coach Kieran McKenna will take positive stock from this latest performance.

Delap’s two goals were both well taken, but the execution was quite different.

His first was a predatory first-time strike from inside the box and his second was entirely his own strike, reminiscent of his first Premier League goal for Ipswich in a 1-1 draw with Fulham on August 31.

The 21-year-old perhaps should have scored a hat-trick, but Martinez denied him when he was sent on for a one-on-one in the first half.

Kalvin Phillips was involved in Ipswich’s opening goal, scoring from a loss of possession deep in the Villa half before feeding Clarke to provide an assist for Delap.

England international Phillips also tested Martinez with a sharp shot from outside the penalty area.

McKenna is worried about the defensive errors, which led to two soft goals at the other end.

Ipswich’s next four league games are against teams not currently ranked in the top 10, so hopes of a first league win of the season soon are high – particularly if Delap can continue this good start to his career in Suffolk.
