Norwich City vs West Bromwich Albion

1. 90'

   Really not a great game at all. If either or even both of these sides are to play at a higher level then they will need to play a bit more football. West Brom looked like they came for a draw and so will be the happier of the two sides. Seven yellow cards and no goals tells the story of this one

2. 90'

   It's all over and the points are shared after a hard fort contest

3. 90'

   Clement and Edworthy square up to each other briefly after a tackle by the former on the latter.

4. 90'

   Free kick is thrown in to the West Brom box - as are most of the Norwich defence. A bit of pushing and pulling results in a West Brom free kick being awarded

5. 90'

   three minutes of added time

6. 89'

   A deflection off the referee in the middle of a Norwich attack allows Svensson to bend a ball out to Huckerby on the right. Shapes as if to shoot first time which fools Gregan but instead cuts back and lets fly. Strong effort but there are bodies in the way

7. 88'

   West Brom make a change. Niel Clement on for Kinsella

8. 87'

   McVeigh's night is over as he is replaced by Leon McKenzie

9. 86'

   Huckerby out wide on the left shadowed as ever by Chambers. The attacker manages to turn and face him and tries to beat him at the line but the ball runs out for a goal kick

10. 85'

    All norwich at the moment as they are camped in the West Brom half

11. 83'

    Francis does well to win a long ball forward and lay back to McVeigh. He curls in a decent enough cross from deep on the left and Svensson shapes for an overhead kick before Gaardsoe intervenes and clears

12. 82'

    Norwich look to release Huckerby who has started playing wide to try and get some of the ball. Great ball forward for him to chase but he sets off just too soon and is offside

13. 81'

    Period of awful play from both teams as the ball is given away as if neither side wants it

14. 80'

    The niggly fouls continue to add up at pace and the referee reaches for his pocket once more. Koumas the seventh player to be booked

15. 79'

    Some tired legs on the pitch now and the game, still not of great quality, is at least starting to open up a bit

16. 78'

    Mulryne steps up to bend one and he is not far off. The ball just doesn't dip in time and lands on the roof of the net

17. 77'

    Gaardsoe and Svensson clash on the edge of the box. Svensson backs into the Baggie defender before they fall in a heap but the referee awards in the home side's favour

18. 75'

    Haas gets the better of Huckerby with a fine tackle as the Norwich man treatened to break clear. Huckerby is hurt and requires treatment for a few moments before he is up and running again

19. 74'

    At the other end Dobie challenges Hoult in the West Brom net when he really had little chance of getting to it and he too sees yellow

20. 73'

    Svensson talks his way into the referee's notebook after protesting about the decision

21. 72'

    Svensson is crudely pulled back in the box by Gaardsoe but the referee is having none of it

22. 71'

    Free kick for Norwich dead in front of goal about 22 yards out. Mulryne tries to delicately bend one round the wall. Misses the wall but also the goal

23. 70'

    Iwan Roberts tired legs are replaced by Mathias Svensson

24. 69'

    Corner swung over from the right goes through a crowd of bodies until it finds Haas who rather predictably sends his effort wide

25. 68'

    Deep cross from the right is destined for Dobie at the far post until Mackay intervines and puts away for a corner
