Ipswich vs Fulham: late comeback leaves Arbeloa winless

Ipswich were still behind at 88 minutes in Ipswich vs Fulham. Then Abdoul Ouattara hit a 30-yard thunderbolt into the bottom corner, and Dara O'Shea headed in the first minute of stoppage time to seal a 2-1 win over Fulham. Ryan Sessegnon had put Fulham ahead with his 55th-minute strike, but they left Portman Road with another winless Premier League night under Alvaro Arbeloa.

Ipswich's late turnaround

The finish mattered because Ipswich did not look like a side about to steal it. Fulham had the lead for most of the second half after Ryan Sessegnon scored on 55 minutes, but the game flipped late and quickly.

Ouattara's equaliser was the standout moment. The 30-yard effort into the bottom corner gave Ipswich life, and O'Shea followed it with the winner almost immediately after the restart. Ouattara and Sessegnon both finished with a 7.72 rating, while O'Shea was close behind on 7.36.

Ipswich's numbers after the 88th minute tell the story cleanly. They scored twice in that spell, and both goals came from different sources, first through Ouattara's strike and then O'Shea's header.

Fulham's early-season problem

Fulham's defeat kept Alvaro Arbeloa's winless league start at six Premier League matches. They have only two points from six league games and sit 19th, seven points behind Ipswich.

The margin for error is already shrinking. Fulham got the first goal here and still walked away empty-handed, which is the kind of result that puts pressure on a team fast. Arbeloa still has no league win to point to, and Fulham's position reflects that.
