Mick McCarthy quits as Ipswich manager after Knudsen goal beats Barnsley

Ipswich manager Mick McCarthy has quit his post four games early following his side's 1-0 home win over his former club Barnsley.

The 59-year-old had been due to leave the Championship outfit at the end of the season but instead quit after Jonas Knudsen's 54th-minute goal left the team 12th in the table and above rivals Norwich on goal difference.
