Tractor Boys power to victory over Charlton

Ireland duo Daryl Murphy and David McGoldrick were among the goals as in-form Ipswich crushed Charlton Athletic 3-0 in front of their biggest crowd of the season to maintain the pressure on Championship leaders Bournemouth.

Tommy Smith and Murphy continued their fine scoring form with a goal in each half before David McGoldrick netted a deserved third in injury time. The win moves second-place Town a point behind the Cherries.

Derby County maintained their stranglehold over Leeds United with a comfortable 2-0 victory at the iPro Stadium that leaves the Yorkshire club just a point above the relegation zone.
