Mick McCarthy: 'Ipswich Town did enough to beat rivals Norwich City'

Mick McCarthy believes that his Ipswich Town side did enough to beat Norwich City after Sunday's East Anglian derby ended in a 1-1 draw at Portman Road.

Ipswich Town manager Mick McCarthy has claimed that his side did enough to beat Norwich City in Sunday's 1-1 draw at Portman Road.

Cameron Jerome's 26th-minute strike gave the visitors the lead against the run of play before Blues left-back Jonas Knudsen fired in an equaliser on the stroke of half time.

McCarthy told Sky Sports News after the game: "I thought we were the better side and I am really pleased with the performance. I expected a scrap but there was also a lot of quality in the match from both teams. We played well and we were solid for most of the game.

"We started really well and I am delighted with how we have responded, against Norwich today and Wolves in midweek, after I was annoyed and angry at Brentford last Saturday.

"I am disappointed we didn't win. We played well enough to win but we didn't manage to get that second goal against a team who will be at the top all season."

The East Anglian derby result puts Ipswich 13th in the Championship table.
