Kieran McKenna expressed great satisfaction with the team's recent performance, especially after consecutive home victories against Stoke City, which boosted the morale of the team and fans. In this match, Jaden Filogen scored a brilliant goal from outside the penalty area just two minutes into the game, securing the win for Ipswich Town. This also marked the team's third consecutive home clean sheet, demonstrating their defensive solidity and improved teamwork.  

After the match, Kieran McKenna said in an interview: "I really enjoyed the game. From the start, we had some great team goals and a very good individual goal. The positive start gave the team a lot of confidence and forced the opponent to give it their all. Stoke City is a very competitive team and they also contributed many exciting moments to the game. It was a test for both sides."  

The head coach further analyzed the team's performance in the second half, saying, "Our ball control and passing were excellent in the second half, and our attacking fluidity was significantly improved compared to last Saturday. We also maintained a high level of focus on defense and didn't give the opponent many opportunities. Although failing to score a second goal is regrettable for any team, the perseverance and stability shown by the team are gratifying. Maintaining this focus until the end against a strong opponent is exactly what I wanted to see."  

"The crowd's performance tonight was outstanding, and their support provided tremendous motivation for the team. The home atmosphere has always been a significant advantage for the team, and it was proven once again tonight. The players were able to feel this support and translate it into motivation on the field, which played a crucial role in the result of the game."  

“Although the season has just begun and we have only played two games and earned six points, the challenge ahead is how to maintain this momentum. The team is on the right track, and we need to continue to work hard, stay consistent and focused, and treat every game as a crucial battle.”
