Bishop on Target But U21s Lose to Blades - Ipswich Town News

Teddy Bishop played his first full 90 minutes in more than a year and scored but it wasn’t enough to prevent the Blues U21s from falling to a 2-1 defeat to Sheffield United at Bramall Lane this afternoon.

Town were already behind to first-half goals scored by Alex O'Hanlon and Jamie McDonagh by the time Bishop, who is continuing his comeback from injury, prodded home at the far post from a freekick on the hour mark.

Good to get my first 90 in over a year 😩⚽️🙈 always good to score aswell
