Joe Jacobson missed penalty costs Wycombe victory in draw at Ipswich
Posted Wednesday, November 27, 2019 by PA
Leaders Wycombe kept their five-point lead at the top of Sky Bet League One following a 0-0 draw at Ipswich.
They wasted a golden opportunity to turn one point into three when Joe Jacobson saw his 87th-minute penalty saved by Ipswich goalkeeper Tomas Holy.
Ipswich were denied a goal two minutes before the break when Luke Chambers headed home Luke Garbutt’s corner but referee Alan Young disallowed the goal for offside after consulting linesman Aaron Farmer.
Kayden Jackson had appeared to get a slight touch as it crossed the goal line and even though Young originally awarded a goal he changed his mind.
Wycombe striker Adebayo Akenfenwa found himself clear on goal in the 26th minute with just Holy to beat but his shot was kept out by the legs of the goalkeeper.
The second half lacked the intensity of the first period until three minutes from the end when Wycombe were awarded a penalty.
Chambers was adjudged to have tugged back Dominic Gape but Holy stretched out an arm to save Jacobson’s spot kick.
