Reaction from Ipswich Town pair Kevin Horlock and Fabian Wilnis following Town’s 2-2 draw with Sunderland earlier today.

Horlock: “It was a massive game to play in and you could see that there were two teams out there that didn't want to lose. We were desperate for the win and when we edged in front it looked as though we could do it but fair play to them, they're not top of the League for no reason - they've battled hard and worked hard and they'll probably be disappointed that they've not won it. I'd like to see Sunderland and us go up but obviously Wigan are in the equation and they'll be happy with this result today. We're not giving up the fight; we're still right in there with three games to go and we're going to be looking to get maximum points.”

Wilnis: “The game had everything today, it went from end to end, goals, passion, desire - everything. Overall, we were lucky to get a point but so were they. We knew what was at stake today and the team spirit and character we've shown all season was important. After the Wolves game it was important to bounce back and so today's game was immense for us. We went one up, they came back, they took the lead and we came back and could, possibly, have nicked it at the end - there was everything out there. It was like playing in a cauldron, not only the game, but the heat was terrific.”
