Trevoh Chalobah is on a season-long loan at Ipswich from Chelsea

Aston Villa's 100% winning start in the Championship came to an end at Ipswich, who earned a point after playing for 51 minutes with 10 men.

An eventful first half at Portman Road saw both sides score, hit the woodwork and Ipswich reduced to 10 men.

After Ipswich's Gwion Edwards sent an effort against the crossbar, Jonathan Kodjia glanced in John McGinn's delivery to put Villa ahead and he almost added a second from Jack Grealish's free-kick.

Trevoh Chalobah took advantage of Villa goalkeeper Orjan Nyland's error to equalise, but the hosts were soon a player light when Tayo Edun was sent off for two bookable offences before half-time.

Conor Hourihane came closest to a Villa winner in stoppage time but his attempt was saved by Bartosz Bialkowski.

The Tractor Boys are still awaiting their first win under Paul Hurst, who replaced Mick McCarthy as manager in the summer.

Chalobah's first senior goal came four days after a spot-kick failure in Town's penalty shootout defeat by League Two side Exeter in the Carabao Cup first round.

Kodjia's first goal in almost 11 months will be a welcome relief for the Ivory Coast striker, who scored 19 goals for Villa in 2016-17 but has since been hampered by injury problems.

Former Hibernian midfielder McGinn once again showed his prowess from set-pieces, having created two goals on his debut against Wigan seven days previously.

Ipswich Town manager Paul Hurst told BBC Radio Suffolk:

"The message at half-time was to believe. I told the players to not get caught up in the name, or the names on the back of the shirts that we're up against.

"We give as good as we get or at least try to. The most pleasing part was the way we came from a goal behind to start with.

"[I was also pleased with] the character overall in the game to make sure that we did come away with something and not be beaten on our own patch."

Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce told BBC WM:

"For 35 minutes I was really delighted with our attitude towards a team who we knew had a lot of new players and a new atmosphere around the place.

"Unfortunately we gifted them a goal and it gives them a lift. Against 10 men we didn't move the ball quickly enough or create enough.

"We still had enough chances. There's always frustration when you don't win against 10 men but we move on and live to fight another day."
