Probably a fair result at Portman Road in the end. Ipswich carried the greater goal threat and should have scored more. But the one they did get, Brett Pitman's penalty in reply to David Cotterill's well-taken opener, was clouded with controversy. Probably only the most diehard Ipswich fans thought they should have had a penalty. If you want to relive the action, please take a read of tonight's match report.

Overall, another top quality advert for the Championship. Thanks for joining us - and let's hope it proves just as entertaining at the City Ground tomorrow lunchtime.

That's just about that from us this evening. Remember, that's only the start of your football this weekend as tomorrow we'll have live text commentary on every Premier League game, as well as Nottingham Forest v Middlesbrough at 12:30 BST.

So, that is that. It's a point apiece at Portman Road.

Into the final minute of stoppage time now. Is there to be a grand finale?

Ryan Fraser gets a low left-foot shot away on the break, saved by Tomasz Kuszczak, before Jonas Knudsen's low cross slides across the face of goal.

Cole Skuse wins a corner with his deflected shot off Stephen Gleeson, fisted away by Tomasz Kuszczak.

Five minutes of added time, says referee Keith Stroud.

David McGoldrick flashes his shot just across the face. Ipswich's subs are having a real impact. 

Christophe Berra booked for foul on Clayton Donaldson - not his first of the night. But Blues' well-worked free-kick routine ends with Stephen Gleeson, who has a good goal record this season, shooting just side,.

Veteran defender Paul Robinson comes on for Demarai Gray - the first indication that maybe Birmingham are going to be happy with an away point.

Ipswich make their third substitution, bringing on young winger Ryan Fraser for Ainsley Maitland-Niles. He nearly has an instant impact with his first cross. But Daryl Murphy, still seeking his first goal of the season, powers a header over the angle of post and bar.

Ipswich keeper Dean Gerken comes up with a frantic means of clearing from Clayton Donaldson on the edge of his box, with a wild kick in the air. Then, seconds later, Donaldson goes down after tangling with Tommy Smith. After the referee's first-half penalty decision in the same box, Ipswich fans must have had their hearts in their mouths.

Birmingham boss Gary Rowett responds by bringing on Jacques Maghoma on for Andrew Shinnie.

A second attacking substitution for Ipswich. David McGoldrick on for Larsen Toure. The former Coventry and Forest man makes an immediate impact as he heads down Jonas Knudsen's centre and Ainsley Maitland-Niles flashes wide.

Daryl Murphy, last season's 27-goal leading league marksman for Ipswich, replaces the home side's first-half scorer Brett Pitman. That brings the Suffolk fans back to life - and Luke Chambers flashes just wide from a half-cleared corner.
