Liam Delap’s exceptional performance helped Ipswich earn their first home win of the season as Chelsea’s title hopes dwindled.

Chelsea dominated possession but were wasteful and the video assistant referee (VAR) ruled out a Joao Felix first-half equaliser after a long check for offside.

Newcastle didn’t need to come up with anything radical to seize control of the match.

In an age of analysts, throw-in coaches and fitness gurus, a TV set with an ability to record would have been enough.

Fulham are a potent combination of quality, energy and relentless ambition and that was all on show here as they were undaunted by going behind to Palmer’s superb early strike.

It was no surprise when Wilson equalised, Fulham then preying

Everton’s treacherous run of fixtures in December sees them face Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City and they would have wanted to head into that sequence of games in some sort of form.

Lallana set up a player half his age as he provided a fine pass which Dibling controlled well to create space away from two Ipswich defenders, with the midfielder – a product of the Southampton academy – scoring his first senior goal.

That was the first time the Saints had led in a league match this season and they nearly doubled their advantage 22 minutes later.
