Championship round-up: Chris Coleman earns first win at Sunderland, Wolves go seven points clear and Derby run riot at Middlesbrough

Here are the highlights from an eventful day in the Championship:

Albert Adomah was Aston Villa's match-winner with two crucial goals to defeat Ipswich 2-0 and consolidate their top-four spot in the Championship.

The former Middlesbrough player took his goal tally to five in the last three games, in which Villa have taken maximum points to boost their promotion challenge.

Adomah's 37th-minute opener was not unexpected as Ipswich are not noted for keeping the opposition at bay on their travels. This was their 17th successive away game in which they have failed to keep a clean sheet.
