Tottenham’s boss held his glare for several seconds, with some staff members also joining him.
But Postecoglou eventually headed inside and undoubtedly gave his Spurs players a dressing down.
Speaking in the tunnel, the Australian said: “We were very passive, we didn’t get the tempo or intensity right. Ultimately, it’s my responsibility.
“It’s got nothing to do with the players. The inconsistency we’re having this year is down to me.
“I’ve got to make sure that I try and find a way for us to become a more consistent side.
“The fans will be disappointed, they have a right to be. Like I said, the responsibility lies with me to fix it.”
Big Ange also hit out at Ipswich for perceived time wasting, adding: “I think it’s the way the Premier League is going.
“It’s pretty strategic now. It’s funny – I always liked the Premier League because it wasn’t like that.
“You’d watch teams play in Europe and get frustrated by it, but now it’s part of the game here as well. There’s nothing we can do about it.

“For us, if we want to mitigate those things – because we don’t do it and we want the game to be played – then we shouldn’t give opportunities for the opposition to do that.”
