Before Sunday’s game, Ipswich had led for a league-low 86 minutes this season, despite opening the scoring in five of their 10 league games.

Yet they lost two of those matches and drew three, so have dropped 12 points from winning positions – second only to Brentford (14).

They ensured they did not add to that tally after an excellent all-round performance in north London.

A lively start saw
