“We were able to control the game and we had a good spell in the first half and we took advantage of the talented players we have as well as Ipswich being unbalanced in some moments.
“The message at the beginning of the game was to be compact, realise that Ipswich are strong at home and they’re a team that tends to score quickly.
“After that we controlled possession, we had good movement with the ball, we were able to unbalance Ipswich and score beautiful goals."

Santo took over as Nottingham manager in 2023 after leaving Al Ittihad in Saudi Arabia.
