Eddie Nketiah gave her great chance, so it was thanks to God by Ismaila Sarr at Crystal Palace, who inflicted another overwhelming blow to Ipswich with a late winner at Selhurst Park.
With the rivals of the relegation, the wolves playing at the end of the day and the Palace without Talismanical striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, a window of opportunity had opened for the tractor boys.
But after a brilliant start, they disappeared badly, and although the palace seemed unfounded with the ineffective Nketiah losing its best chance, Ipswich could not capitalize.
Manchester United is among the teams interested in matet and, if that was a glimpse of a possible future without him for the Eagles, it was quite dark.
But a flood of late pressure ended up told and Sarr finally surpassed them in front with just over eight minutes, scoring their seventh goal of the season.
Mateeta marked the winner in the reverse game on Portman Road in December.

But with the French out of action after being brutally kicked in the head by goalkeeper Millwall Liam Roberts, it was Eddie Nketiah who led the line to the palace.
And Nketiah should have scored within two minutes when Adam Wharton threw him clean with a lovely ball.
But the ex -Assenal cheered when he gave some Alex Palmer and Ipswich’s goalkeeper ended up blocking his kick.
Dean Henderson made a diving defense to deny Jaden Philoge at the other extreme, before one last block of Jacob Greaves deny Eberechi Eze a certain goal.
Henderson again did well when Julio Enciso embarrassed Marc Guehi to fire in a shot in the middle of the first half.
Ipswich survived a fright when Leif Davis fell hard after an air collision with Daniel Munoz, but he ended up rising after a long treatment.
Eze almost scored a comic goal at the beginning of the second half, when his cross rose from Dara O’Shea and won Palmer just to reach the farther post.
But Ipswich should have done better in a quick break when Jack Clarke ran clear, but threw a bad ball to Liam Delap, who had to fall out of his feet before shooting straight against Henderson.

Ismaila Sarr then eliminated her own Delap Goaline, before Eze Testing Palmer with a diverted shot, and Sarr walked away from a corner.
Ipswich once again Palmer thanked them for keeping them in him when he made a brilliant defense to deny Daniel Munoz for 12 minutes.
But it didn’t last, and it was Sarr who ended up breaking the impasse, jumping very easily and taking the ball over the Onrushing Palmer.
Ipswich pressed the strongest he could for a draw, but it was not to be, and now they took only two points from a possible 27th calendar year. Highlighted.
