Manchester United had to settle for a point at Ipswich in Ruben Amorim's first game in charge despite striker Marcus Rashford providing the perfect start with his 81-second opener.
Omari Hutchinson levelled for Ipswich before the break, with United keeper Andre Onana twice denying Liam Delap with stunning saves.
It was a disappointing outcome for Amorim as his side struggled to contain Ipswich at times and found the home defence in defiant mood when it did seem an opportunity would come.
Skipper Bruno Fernandes flashed a late free-kick wide but Ipswich fully deserved their point and without Onana would have had more.
Amorim's bold wing-back choice Amad Diallo provided the low cross that Rashford converted for his fifth goal of the season. It was the England forward's first goal in the Premier League since September and ended his eight-game barren streak in all competitions.
Ipswich grew into the game though and created by far the better chances, only to find Onana in outstanding form.
Star fan and minority shareholder Ed Sheeran did have something to celebrate though as Hutchison's curling shot flicked off Noussair Mazraoui's head and over Onana for his first goal since joining Ipswich permanently in a £20m summer move.
The result means United remain in the bottom half of the Premier League after 12 games, while Ipswich are in the relegation zone, behind Wolves on goal difference after their win at Fulham.
