Championship high-flyers Ipswich Town stunned Premier League Wolves as they fought back from two goals down to reach the Carabao Cup fourth round.

Jack Taylor's spectacular long-range strike completed the turnaround at Portman Road as Ipswich reached the last-16 for the first time since 2010.

Hwang Hee-chan and Toti had put Wolves in control after just 15 minutes.

But goals from Omari Hutchinson and Freddie Ladapo ensured the hosts ended an entertaining first half level.
