Soccer-Two goals from on-loan Bamford put Boro top of Championship

Middlesbrough went top of the tightest league in Europe when they beat Ipswich Town 4-1 on Saturday to move three points clear of Bournemouth, Derby County and Watford in the English Championship title race. At the start of the day Middlesbrough were level on 66 points with that trio and Norwich City were a point behind, but their victory in the early kickoff moved them top of England's second tier, temporarily at least.
