Ipswich Town 0-0 Watford: Cameron Burgess reaction

The Blues had several good first half chances, with Nathan Broadhead hitting the base of the post and Kieffer Moore thundering a header at the Watford keeper.

But they couldn't find the breakthrough which would have taken them top of the Championship table, and now sit second, level on points with leaders Leicester City and a point above Leeds United.

The big centre-back insisted that they'll take the positives from the game and move on - the Blues still have their automatic promotion fate in their own hands with just four matches left.

 “We focus on the performances," he insisted. "On another night, one of those chances drops for us – we did everything right, one just needs to fall for us.

“If a ball hits the post and rolls along the line, what can you do? At the end of the day, that’s football.

“But we’ll keep battling away and take the positives from it. It’s a point and it’s still in our hands, so we just keep going.”

He added: “If you’ve been at our last handful of homes games you’ve seen us score with seconds to go, so there’s always that chance and it’s that type of group – we have that character about us.

“We never say never and we keep going until the final whistle. Sometimes it’s not always going to go your way.

“But at the end of the day it’s a clean sheet and a point and we move on and keep going.”

The Blues found it harder going in the second half, as the Hornets dug in and ground out a point which sees them remain unbeaten in five games under interim boss Tom Cleverley.

And Burgess surmised: "It felt like they had a lot more bodies behind the ball. We had balls into their box that didn’t seem to fall for us – the ball had to go through about four or five bodies for it to reach the goalkeeper, which is not always easy.

“When we implement our style and do that sort of stuff at home, teams can do that – it’s never going to be easy, especially here at home.

“On another day, if we could have scored one of those goals in the first half, it could have been a completely different game.

“If teams like Watford – with some of the players they’ve got in their squad – are going to come and do that, then we must be doing something right. We’ll just stick at it.”
