Ings Secures the Points

Despite, having a three-goal cushion by half-time, it was the fourth that eventually saw the hosts off. The striker’s latest notch was taken with typical aplomb.

Ings received possession on the angle just short of the area. The former Liverpool man fired to the keepers Far Side and hit nothing but net.

The bullet like hit raises the number nines tally to 5 goals this term. What’s more, the three points moves the club to third in the EPL.
