George Edmundson's injury time goal has given the Blues a 1-0 half-time lead over Charlton at the Valley.

However, Chaplin in any case won a corner and before it was taken referee Josh Smith indicated to the fourth official that someone in the crowd was using a whistle. The Town players protested to referee Smith that they should have been awarded a penalty but to no avail. However, from the resultant corner, the Blues went in front. Addicks skipper Jayden Stockley seized on it but hit a first-time shot straight back to the relieved keeper. On 14 Egbo succumbed to his earlier knock and was replaced by Albie Morgan. Former Town midfielder Scott Fraser started in the home side’s midfield.

Edge-of-the-box strikes from Ladapo and Morsy looked to have won it for Ipswich in stoppage time but Thomas halved the deficit from inside the six-yard box and the Addicks weren’t done. The first half started brightly for the hosts, who pressed high as they looked to ensure Ipswich weren’t allowed the control they have established in so many of their games this term, but they were forced into a change inside the first 15 minutes when Mandela Egbo limped off to be replaced by Morgan.

Ipswich Town drew 4-4 at Charlton Athletic in the most dramatic of League One games yesterday. STUART WATSON reflects on the action.

Town are the topscorers in the division. Ipswich players got swept up in the emotion of it all and allowed their focus to slip. The Blues are 13 points up on what they had at this stage of last season. We'll be looking to do the work on the training ground to help us do that." The six minutes of stoppage-time are now up. Ball jumped on Morsy's back and rode him towards the away end. Luke Woolfenden almost joined them when leaping on the top of the advertsiing hoardings. His downward effort hit the legs of keeper Joe Wollacott though. Christian Walton kept the shot out with his legs, but Jes Rak-Sayki was there to stab in. Having been benched after a two-goal display at Port Vale in midweek the front man pointed to the name on the back of his shirt in celebration. And he thought goalscorer John-Jules was offside when Wes Burns delivered from the right. PLEASE STOP IT," he said, to collective cheers, before adding that the players would be asked to leave the field if it happened again.

Ipswich Town drew 4-4 at Charlton Athletic following the most dramatic of finishes to a game. Here's what Blues boss Kieran McKenna had to say…

"There's a part of me that wants to focus on the repeatable. I don't think us getting the late goals was a one out of 100 moment, I thought we were pushing and building towards it. "Of course this is not the first time we have given up the lead. And of course to get it in front of our away end was fantatsic. We'll be looking to do the work on the training ground to help us do that." Sometimes the ball falls one way and sometimes it goes another. We've come out of it with seven points, lots of positives and some clear areas to work on." "My feelings at the moment is that it wasn't a lack of concentration,certainly not sloppiness. I think if we played the last three minutes over it wouldn't happen again. It was obviously a rollercoaster of emotions," said McKenna, whose side missed out on a chance to go top of the League One table. Of course there are different goals in there, but if there's a common theme then it is dealing with high balls into our box. I always believed we were going to score again, though I didn't think we would score two more.
