Fulham were the second visitors to Portman Road of what will be a difficult season for Kieran McKenna’s troops.

Liam Delap scored the East Anglia side’s first home goal of the campaign in the 15th minute.

Omari Hutchinson came close to bagging a late winner for the home side but saw his effort saved by Bernd Leno.
