Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce said:

"It's tough at the minute. We certainly didn't deserve to lose. We had some really good opportunities and didn't take them.

"Once again we made one mistake and we were punished. Hopefully we have fallen as far as we can because the next few games are going to be important.

"It is time to batten down the hatches and face the flak. But we need to take some of the chances we are creating.

"The Ipswich goal was an individual mistake. Unfortunately every time we make a mistake we are punished. We now have to find some form to get a win to restore the confidence in the team."
