Ipswich Town striker Dean Bowditch said the Blues were pleased to get a point from their game against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Portman Road.

The game ended at 1-1, but the visitors were the better side for much of the game.

They took the lead when Colin Cameron's shot was deflected off the foot of Jason De Vos into the home net.

But a Matt Richards penalty on 57 minutes ensured a share of the points and Bowditch said the team had been delighted with that.

"At the end of the day it is a point against a good team and I think we were buzzing afterwards," he said.

"Their goal was a bit flukey because it was a deflection, but they had a few good chances they should have tucked away so we were lucky just to get the point I guess.

"The last 20 or 30 minutes we were chasing the game and it was very difficult but we worked hard against a team who are doing very well so it was good for us."
