Half-Time Report: Brighton & Hove Albion being held by Ipswich Town

Brighton being held by Ipswich

Brighton & Hove Albion and Ipswich Town head into half time goalless in this afternoon's Championship match at the Amex Stadium.

The Seagulls were the first to threaten, with Jesse Lingard getting in behind the visitor's defence to force an early save out of Dean Gerken.

The hosts applied further pressure in the 19th minute when Ipswich failed to clear a corner, allowing Bruno to pick out Leonardo Ulloa, but Gerken came to the Tractor Boys' rescue again.

Ipswich had their first attack of any note moments later as Anthony Wordsworth latched onto Aaron Cresswell's pass and let fly, his effort sailing wide to the left.

Mick McCarthy's side did manage to find the net before the half-time whistle, but Jonny Williams's strike was ruled out as an offside flag was raised against the midfielder.
