Pablo on Goal - Ipswich Town News
Town striker Pablo Couñago hailed his injury time equaliser as the most important of his career. The Spaniard has now scored six goals this season, three in the league in addition to the hat-trick against Avenir Beggen in the UEFA Cup.
The Spaniard said after the game: "All competitive goals are important but to score in the last minute and in such an important game as the derby is incredible.
"This has to be the most important goal I have ever scored."
The Town sub was also involved in a bout of handbags with Darren Kenton during an eventful ten or so minutes on the pitch. This he dismissed as merely part of the game: "It's just something that happens in football."
