Sheffield Wednesday suffered a sixth defeat in their last seven Championship matches on Saturday afternoon, losing 3-1 to Ipswich Town at Portman Road.
Goals either side of half-time from Cédric Kipré and Jaden Philogene put the promotion-chasing Tractor Boys in charge and well on their way to all three points, but Liam Cooper pulled a goal back for Wednesday with just under 20 minutes of normal time remaining to give the Owls a ray of hope.
However, Ipswich sealed the points when Jack Clarke, fresh off the bench, poked home a third from inside the six-yard box.
Here is how we rated Wednesday’s players at Portman Road:
1. Pierce Charles - 8
Was not called into action until the 28th minute, but he made a strong save when he needed to, getting down well to keep out Jens Cajuste's low effort from a tight angle. Added other saves to his collection after the break, including a stunning stop at the end, keeping the scoreline down. Couldn't do anything about the goals. | UGC
2. Dominic Iorfa - 4
Pinned down by Kipré for the opening goal and beaten far too easily. His afternoon came to an end shortly after half-time following a clash of heads. | UGC
3. Liam Cooper - 6
Earned the game's first booking for a clumsy challenge on Iván Azón but later atoned by scoring his first Wednesday goal, firing a brilliant left-footed effort into the bottom corner after Barry Bannan's free-kick wasn't dealt with. | UGC
4. Max Lowe - 5
Tried to help Wednesday progress the ball from deep and instigate attacks. He also completed three interceptions by half-time. However, he was forced off after 66 minutes after needing medical treatment. George Brown replaced him. | UGC
