Highlights of the Sky Bet League One match between Shrewsbury vs Ipswich.

Substitute Shaun Whalley scored a stunning 85th-minute equaliser to snatch Shrewsbury a point from a 1-1 draw against 10-man Ipswich in a fiery Sky Bet League One clash.

James Norwood put the visitors ahead with his sixth-goal of the season after six minutes before team-mate Cameron Burgess was shown a second yellow card on 75 minutes.

That moment swung the momentum and Whalley spectacularly picked out the far corner from 25 yards.

Just five minutes in, Marko Marosi made a sensational save to keep out Conor Chaplin’s header but Norwood made no mistake one minute later – glancing Janoi Donacien’s cross into the far corner.

Shortly after – in a bizarre turn of events – play was halted as one of the linesmen suffered a leg injury and he had to be eventually replaced with the fourth official Lisa Rashid.
