Few teams will go to Etihad Stadium this season and get a result, let alone one that was playing in League One just two seasons ago, so for Ipswich this was all about learning and taking the positives they could.

One of those positives was Sammie Szmodics. The forward is one of a number of new additions at Ipswich this season following their return to the Premier League and he picked off right where he left off in the Championship with a goal after seven minutes.

It was similar to many he scored in the second tier as well. Getting into the right position before squeezing a shot under goalkeeper Ederson and into the back of the net.

That was Ipswich's only shot on target, but they will need players capable of finishing the very few chances they are likely to get in the top flight, and Szmodics did just that.
