Michael Emons at Portman Road: Ipswich’s Kieran McKenna paced along the edge of the technical area, encouraging and clapping his side – calm and steady instead of panicking and nervous.
He was a near-permanent presence there, but when something happened – goals at either end, corners, good challenges, shots – he would watch the clip with the analysts for 10-20 seconds before returning to his position.
A raised fist followed Liam Delap’s goal, but McKenna – 40 seconds late for the start of the second half – was dejected after Wolves’ late winner.
Wolves manager Vitor Pereira – watching from media seats – and assistant Luis Miguel were suspended, so first-team coach Andre Monteiro took charge.
After Ipswich scored, Monteiro was a chalk-on-the-trainers boss, almost on the pitch, a few paces out of the area. On a few occasions the fourth official had to politely tell Monteiro to get back.
Monteiro was constantly in touch with Pereira, looking in his direction, making hand signals while talking via an earpiece.
When Wolves equalised, Monteiro was about to bring on striker Hwang Hee-chan, but after some hand waving in Pereira’s direction, the decision was changed. Wolves’ winner left Pereira hugging his coaching staff, with Premier League safety practically secured.
