Norwich City supporters have taken to social media to express their delight after the Canaries recorded their first away win of the season against Everton.

I think we all underestimated just how crucial Christoph Zimmermann is to us. So good to have him back

Huge result for us today and hopefully that will kick-start our season. Zimmerman's return gave us two centre-backs and allowed Tetty to push up into midfield. The result was a clean sheet and a precious win that will change the mood music ahead of Arsenal #Norwich #ncfc #OTBC

So proud, so proud. HUGE performances right through the team. Zimbo made the whole back 4 more confident. Onwards and upwards now! #ncfc

What a fantastic win for City today. Huge boost for the confidence.

Love Srbeny's honesty to stay on his feet and finish the game. Top stuff. Onwards and upwards!

Wow. Didn't expect 3 pts today. #ncfc v #EFC
Much better & looked more solid in defence with Zimbo back.
Great result and safe journey back for all the fans who made the long trip.

So happy for him. Dealt an unplayable hand by injuries in the most unforgiving league on the planet. To still have their heads relatively above water is a job well done. #NCFC https://t.co/QkIIcerpw9

Second half goals from Todd Cantwell and substitute Dennis Srbeny ensured it was City who took the points back to Norfolk.

This win ends City's seven game run without a victory and moves them up to 18th in the table, leapfrogging both Watford and Southampton in the process. They are now just one point behind Aston Villa in 17th but they have a game in hand.

Everton were off-colour but it was a gusty City performance that ensured they won their third game of the season.

After the game, chants of 'sacked in the morning' echoed throughout Goodison Park as the home punters made their feelings towards boss Marco Silva clear.

The away fans enraptured after seeing their first win since the game that sealed the Championship title at Villa Park in May.

Srbeny's injury time strike sent the home fans into mutiny but one corner of Goodison Park was jubilant.

Turns out playing Premier League football is a bit easier when you have more than one fit centre back! Great to have big captain Zimbo back #ncfc ?

Better today from Norwich. At least I can watch Match of the Day for once #ncfc
— Simon Crump (@TopTungston) November 23, 2019

Srbeny now level with Ricky Van Wolfswinkel in the #ncfc All-Time Premier League Goalscorer List.
Everton. '??

Not seen it mentioned, but thought Bryam was class today. Wouldn't be against him staying in the back 4 on either side. #ncfc
— Jamie (@jallison31) November 23, 2019

#ncfc No coincidence that we looked a lot more solid with a non-makeshift defence. On top of that, excellent performance and hard work. Awesome stuff and a vital win.
— Rob Turner (@ReynardCity) November 23, 2019

What a win up the Norwich up the Srbeny and what a difference McLean made playing number 10 role. He won absolutely everything in the air, such a positive difference #ncfc

Dennis Srbeny scoring in the Premier League. There'll be few finer stories all season. Three years ago this month he was playing against RB Leipzig's reserves in the German fourth division. #NCFC

If you'd have told me #ncfc would win today
If you'd have told me #ncfc would win and keep a clean sheet today
If you'd have told me #ncfc would win and Srbeny would score a goal like that
Love it! Get in there you yellows!!!
