Jack Clarke scored a late equaliser as Ipswich Town drew with Southampton and left the race for automatic promotion open until the final round of Championship matches this weekend.

The point means that the Tractor Boys can no longer be caught by Saints but Tonda Eckert's team secure their spot in the play-offs.

Wes Burns gave the visitors the lead in the second half as a poked pass made its way through to the winger who took a touch before slamming the ball home.

Saints levelled as a Ryan Manning free-kick flew into the net via a deflection.

Cyle Larin then scored with 10 minutes to go before substitute Jack Clarke produced a crucial equaliser for Kieran McKenna's side as he sent a volley into the bottom corner.

Clarke had a great chance to win the game in injury time, and confirm Ipswich's return to the top flight, but his strike - that looked destined for the top corner - forced a world class save out of Saints keeper Daniel Peretz.
