The pain of last night’s dramatic defeat to Premier League giants Arsenal has given way to pride for Norwich City supporters today – and now you can re-live the Canaries’ valiant efforts.
Josh Murphy’s chip in the 34th minute had Daniel Farke’s team on course for a famous success at the Emirates Stadium, only for a place in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals to be snatched away late on.
Arsenal brought on young striker Eddie Nketiah and barely 15 seconds later the 18-year-old had prodded home from a corner to equalise in the 85th minute.

That took the fourth round tie to extra-time and Nketiah then rose high to head the Gunners in front six minutes into the first half of extra-time and disappoint the huge travelling support of 8,800 Canaries fans.

Coming just two days after Sunday’s 1-0 derby victory at Ipswich, it was a gruelling evening for Farke’s team and the away supporters made their appreciation of the players’ efforts clear with a rousing reception at full-time.
