A neat move down the right led to Huddersfield loanee Quaner opening the scoring for the home side.

It came after good interplay between Teddy Bishop, James Bree and Gwion Edwards with the latter's cross being met by the striker who guided the ball into the net from inside the six-yard box.

Forest pressed for an equaliser and won another corner in the 31st minute which resulted in them drawing level.

It was taken by Joe Lolley and struck Nolan on the goal-line and as Ipswich goalkeeper Bartosz Bialkowski attempted to grab the ball, Wague stretched out to knock the ball in.

A free-kick from Lolley was then headed just over the bar by Daryl Murphy.

And, in injury time, Murphy had the ball in the net following another throw-in from Jack Robinson but it was ruled offside.

Trevoh Chalobah, who came on to replace Cole Skuse in the 41st minute, had the home crowd gasping when his shot went narrowly wide.

Ipswich were now having the majority of the play with 30 minutes left and should have taken the lead in the 63rd minute.

Alan Judge was found clear on the right and his cross was met by an unmarked Nolan, who headed just wide of the left-hand post when he should have scored.

Stroud then disallowed an Ipswich goal in the 73rd minute when a free-kick from Judge found Nolan just inside the penalty area and the midfielder fired high into the net. He ruled that he had failed to blow his whistle for the kick to be taken which resulted in a frenzy of abuse from the home fans.

Two minutes later Matty Cash's shot at goal was parried by Bialkowski and Murphy followed up but his attempt was saved again by the Ipswich goalkeeper.

The home side were peppering the Forest goal but Costel Pantilimon stood firm.

And in a frenetic period of additional time Ipswich were denied a penalty claim when substitute Kayden Jackson appeared to be fouled.
