Fulham's Iwobi and Bassey suffer late defeat to Ipswich

Fulham's Iwobi and Bassey suffer late defeat to Ipswich

Fulham, with players Alex Iwobi and Calvin Bassey, faced a disappointing 2-1 defeat against Ipswich Town in the Premier League, extending their winless run to six matches. The match took place at Portman Road on Saturday.

Fulham initially took the lead when Ryan Sessegnon scored 10 minutes into the second half with a low shot from outside the penalty area. However, Ipswich mounted a late comeback, starting with Abdoul Ouattara's equalizer in the 88th minute, a powerful strike from 25 yards.

The hosts then completed their comeback in the 92nd minute when captain Dara O’Shea scored from a set-piece. This late collapse was a significant setback for Fulham, who had hoped to secure their first league victory of the season.

The result leaves Fulham in the relegation zone with just two points from six matches, increasing pressure on coach Álvaro Arbeloa. Ipswich's victory marked their third league win, lifting them to ninth place in the standings.
