Ipswich Town trolled on social media following their shock victory over in the on Sunday.

The Tractor Boys rubbed salt in the wounds of Spurs fans after two first half goals from Sammie Szmodics and Liam Delap were enough to secure a 2-1 win - their first since returning to the Premier League.

Despite scoring with 20 minutes to go through Rodrigo Bentancur, Spurs couldn't find an equaliser and failed to show consistency in the league after an impressive 4-1 thrashing of Aston Villa last weekend. The away end went crazy at the full-time whistle while the hosts were booed off.

Ipswich were the only side still without a win this season heading into the game today, but the three points moved them outside of the relegation zone. Wins are usually a rarity when you're fighting the drop, so the club made the most of it with their posts on social media after the game.

Footage of the players celebrating in the tunnel was posted on X along with a cheeky dig aimed at Spurs midfielder James Maddison - who previously played for Ipswich's rivals Norwich - while he was pictured pulling the shirt of Omari Hutchinson. The Tractor Boys used it as the perfect opportunity to plug their third kit, with the caption: "It's much easier to get a Hutchinson shirt by going to our online store."

Supporters were loving the hilarious trolling from their club's social media team with one replying: "What a win by admin" and another calling for Ipswich to increase the wages of their social media team.

Despite scoring in last weekend's game against Villa, Maddison was benched on Sunday and had little impact when subbed on. The defeat puts pressure on Ange Postecoglou with Spurs slipping to 10th having won five and lost five in the league this season.
