Southampton's defeat opened the door for Ipswich to climb above them into third as they struck late to beat bottom side Rotherham in a seven-goal thriller at Portman Road.
Tom Eaves fired the visitors in front within two minutes but Ipswich quickly equalised through Wes Burns and looked on course for a comfortable win thanks to goals from Kieffer Moore and Burns again.
Hakeem Odoffin pulled one back on the hour mark and Rotherham equalised in brilliant style in stoppage time courtesy of a 'panenka' penalty from Cafu, only for Omari Hutchinson to snatch the winner seconds later in the fourth minute of added time.
