El Mizouni Hits First Orient Goal - Ipswich Town News
On-loan Blues midfielder Idris El Mizouni netted his first goal for loan club Leyton Orient as they beat Barrow 2-0 at Holker Street.
The 21-year-old has been getting rave reviews for his performances for the O’s but today’s 75th-minute strike to seal the win away against the Cumbrians, who included ex-Town left-back Myles Kenlock in their XI, was his first goal.
The East Londoners are top of League Two with 28 points from their first 10 games, the best ever start in the division.

McKenna: An Inevitable DecisionTown boss Kieran McKenna says it was an ‘inevitable decision’ for referee Stephen Martin to abandon the Blues’ match at Blackburn Rovers and expects to return to Ewood Park to restage the contest.
Blackburn Rovers 1-0 Ipswich Town - Match AbandonedTown look set to face a return trip to Blackburn Rovers later in the season after this afternoon’s game was abandoned after 80 minutes due to a waterlogged pitch with the home side 1-0 up and with the Blues down to 10 men. Jacob Greaves was shown a straight red card four minutes after the break for hauling down Yuki Ohashi, then Rovers skipper Todd Cantwell netted a penalty on 59, but the heavy rain had made the game increasingly farcical the longer it progressed and in the 80th minute referee Stephen Martin took the players off and then 25 minutes later abandoned it entirely.
