Coburn bagged his sixth goal in 13 games to lift the third-placed Lions to just a point behind second-placed Middlesbrough in the Championship.

The Derby defence struggled to deal with Ipswich’s clever movement and incisive attacking play – particularly down the left flank against the outstanding Jack Clarke.
Clarke, Anis Mehmeti and Ivan Azon all provided a regular threat, with the opening goal also coming from a corner kick on the left where Travis got his positioning all wrong to send a textbook downward header past Rams goalkeeper Josh Vickers.

Haji Wright was Coventry City’s goalscoring hero once again as his late winner against Millwall stretched the Sky Blues’ lead at the top of the Championship to eight points.

The USA forward’s strike was tough on Millwall and Alex Neil’s side showed enormous fight to level through
Millwall head coach Alex Neil:
“I thought we deserved it over the piece if you look at the clearest chances in the game.
“First half I thought we were excellent. Really pleased. We should have been two or three up – their keeper made two or three unbelievable saves.
“I didn’t think we started the second half well. They got down the sides a few times and caused us a
