Pre-Season Friendly at Cambridge - Ipswich Town News
Town will play Cambridge United in a pre-season friendly at the Abbey Stadium on Saturday 23rd July (KO 3pm).
Last summer, goals from Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Brett Pitman (pictured) and David McGoldrick saw the Blues to a 3-2 friendly victory against the U’s, who are now managed by one-time Town target Sean Derry. Barry Corr and Luke Berry netted for the League Two side.
The Blues' first-team pre-season programme would now appear to be complete with Belgian side Royale Union Saint-Gilloise having announced that they have accepted an invitation to face Town in the traditional final friendly at Portman Road.
