Ipswich came from behind to beat Fulham 2-1 in the Premier League after late goals from Abdoul Ouattara and Dara O'Shea turned the match at Portman Road. Ryan Sessegnon had put Fulham ahead in the 55th minute, but Ipswich equalised in the 89th minute and then scored again in stoppage time.

The result extended Álvaro Arbeloa's winless start in league football to six matches and left Fulham in the relegation zone with only two points from six league games. It was also a third win of the campaign for Gary O'Neil's side, lifting them into the top half of the table.

Sessegnon opened the scoring with a strike from 25 yards after Ipswich had initially applied pressure without making it count. Fulham then came close again through chances for David Affengruber, Sander Berge and Gonzalo García, while Ipswich had penalty appeals waved away before the break.

Ipswich pushed late on and finally broke through when Ouattara produced a 30-yard equaliser into the bottom corner in the 89th minute. O'Shea then headed in Jack Clarke's free-kick in the first minute of stoppage time to complete the turnaround and spark celebrations among the home crowd.

There was still time for goalkeeper Christian Walton to deny Kevin as Ipswich held on for the win.
