Decisive figure powers Ipswich Town with early breakthrough and second half spark

Anis Mehmeti opened the scoring in the third minute with a right footed finish as Ipswich Town beat Swansea City 3-0.

He found space in the centre of the box and rifled into the top right to give the Tractor Boys control.

He stayed dangerous, seeing a drive blocked (36.) and repeatedly drawing fouls that nudged Swansea back.

After the restart he slid a low pass across the six yard area for George Hirst to convert (74.). Moments later he delivered another teasing cross that Hirst headed goalwards, drawing a save (80.).

He finished with one goal, one assist, two big chances created, four fouls won, plus seven recoveries and three tackles won, underlining how he carried the Tractor Boys' threat.

The Tractor Boys remain fourth and host Hull next. Swansea are 16th and face Stoke at home next.
