Competitive first half which saw Mateo Joseph grab his fifth of the season early on. Norwich hit back immediately. Since then, a good contest with plenty of bite.
'20 yards or 30 yards...’
41’ Klich bends one from 20 yards but it’s just wide of the mark. Still 1-1.
Chance, again
35’ Close one. Summerville beats his man with a neat piece of skill and clips one to the far post. Norwich ‘keeper scrambling to cover the angle but it drifts just wide.
34' Mateo Joseph with another sight at goal but sees his firm effort blocked. Norwich very compact defensively. Forshaw seeing plenty of the ball in deeper areas.
Inside outside
23’ Summerville picks up a lofted crossfield pass and has a lot to do but takes on his man and works a shooting angle after cutting in. Into the sidenetting.
Klich plays in Perkins moments later but he’s flagged off.
