Analysis: Watford combined resilience and luck to secure Ipswich draw

BBC: Watford captain Imran Louza scored for the fourth time in as many games as his side frustrated Ipswich Town to secure a draw at Portman Road.

Sky: The visitors’ leading scorer Imran Louza found the net after 16 minutes, with Jaden Philogene equalising for the home side.

Fran’s Watford Blog: This had been a difficult game for the Hornets. Despite scoring with our first attack of the game, there had been little time to take the momentum as the home side equalised soon after. Ipswich certainly had the better of the chances and Selvik kept us in the game with a couple of excellent saves. Pollock and Abankwah were solid in the centre of defence so, despite being under the cosh for a lot of the game, we didn’t look like we were hanging on. I had done an interview for Radio Suffolk before the game and had (unsurprisingly) picked out Louza as the man to watch as well as mentioning Maamma. I was pleased to be proved right. Louza scored for the fourth game in a row and again put in a man of the match performance. Maamma really impressed. As soon as he came on the tempo changed and he was completely unfazed by a Championship defence looking lively going forward but also getting back to do some defensive work. I am really looking forward to seeing a lot more of him in the coming games.
