Two goals by Chris Kiwomya earned battling Ipswich Town a replay with Aston Villa in the fourth round of the League Cup in December 1992.
After a goaless first half, the home side took the lead in the 63rd minute when Dalian Atkinson headed home from a cross by Dean Saunders who had jinxed passed Town defender Phil Whelan on the byline.
Eight minutes later Ipswich were level when John Wark started the move that saw Jason Dozzell pass the ball into Mick Stockwell who set up Chris Kiwomya in space who finished with his right foot from ten yards.
But five minutes later the home side were back in front when Dalian Atkinson produced a glorious pass inside Stockwell and his strike partner Saunders did the rest with a lethal right foot finish.
Town got their second equaliser of the game eight minutes from the end when Mick Stockwell chased a long ball from Phil Whelan which flew to Kiwomya who calmy fired into the net from 25 yards to earn Ipswich a replay at Portman Road.
