November 23, 2025

Wrexham showcased their resilience and extended their streak of unbeaten games to six by securing a hard-fought 0-0 draw against Ipswich at Portman Road.

Despite Ipswich’s aspirations to ascend into the Championship play-off spots, it was Wrexham who showcased a resolute defensive performance, denying the hosts from converting their plethora of chances into goals. The visitors, although failing to register a shot on target, held firm against Ipswich’s offensive threats.

The match saw early pressure from Ipswich, with Chuba Akpom coming close to breaking the deadlock after receiving a well-placed pass from Darnell Furlong. Meanwhile, Sindre Walle Egeli’s skillful play led to a threatening shot on target that tested Wrexham’s goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo.

However, a lapse in concentration from Ipswich goalkeeper Christian Walton nearly gifted Wrexham a golden opportunity to capitalize. Jaden Philogene’s dangerous cross was only headed over the bar by James McClean, while Town captain Dara O’Shea made three consecutive attempts on goal from corners, the final one narrowly missing the target.

Multiple goal-scoring opportunities arose as Sam Smith’s promising run was halted by O’Shea, but Wrexham’s defense remained resolute. The pressure continued with Philogene’s attempts challenging the Ipswich backline. Despite a flurry of shots, Okonkwo’s alert goalkeeping prevented the visitors from conceding.

Both sides exchanged blows, with Philogene and Egeli unleashing shots that tested Ipswich’s defense. Akpom had a clear chance at goal, only to see his shot deflected, while McAteer squandered a late opportunity for Wrexham following a free-kick.

In a tightly contested affair, both teams showcased their defensive resilience and determination, resulting in a hard-fought stalemate at Portman Road.
