Ipswich pulled off one of the biggest shocks of the Premier League season as former Chelsea man Omari Hutchinson played a starring role in a 2-0 victory over the Blues, and you can watch the highlights below.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tractor Boys Stun Chelsea<\/h2>\n

After disappointing recent results, many expected this to be a walk in the park for Chelsea. To many people’s surprise though it was Ipswich who took the lead after 12 minutes against Chelsea.<\/a><\/p>\n

Enzo Maresca rung in the changes<\/a> for the game with Filip Jorgensen one of those benefitting by replacing Robert Sanchez.<\/p>\n

However, he gave away a penalty for bringing down Liam Delap<\/a>, with the Ipswich striker making no mistake from the spot to give the Tractor Boys a shock lead after 12 minutes.<\/p>\n

In fact, Ipswich could have had more in an impressive opening 20 minutes. Nathan Broadhead agonisingly saw his effort cleared off the line while Jorgensen did well to palm behind a half-volley by Delap to deny him his second.<\/p>\n

Chelsea took 20 minutes to wake up with Cole Palmer<\/a> striking the Ipswich post before Joao Felix had a goal disallowed after he strayed offside.<\/p>\n

Felix could have done better with another effort which he tamely struck at the Ipswich goalkeeper. Christian Walton also had to palm behind a thunderous effort from Palmer while Moises Caicedo wildly struck another chance over the crossbar.<\/p>\n

Chelsea rued their missed chances as former Blue Omari Hutchinson doubled Ipswich’s lead eight minutes into the second-half.<\/p>\n

It came after some brilliant hold-up play from Delap before Hutchinson showed patience to bury his effort past Jorgensen.<\/p>\n

Enzo Maresca<\/a> needed a response from his side. He brought on Nicolas Jackson<\/a> and Jadon Sancho in an effort to turn around their fortunes.<\/p>\n

However, this proved fruitless for the Italian as Ipswich picked up just their third win of the season – one that puts them just one point off safety.<\/p>\n
