Half-Time Report: Norwich City net twice against Fulham

Goals from Bradley Johnson and Nathan Redmond give Norwich City a 2-0 half-time lead against Fulham at Carrow Road.

Norwich City are on course to record their first win in three games after opening up a 2-0 lead against Fulham.

The visitors started well at Carrow Road, with Ross McCormack seeing a low effort kept out by John Ruddy, before Norwich responded through Nathan Redmond, who fired wide of the target.

Bradley Johnson, who has been in fine goalscoring form in recent weeks, also sent an effort narrowly wide after being picked out by Elliott Bennett.

Midway through the half, Jonny Howson was provided with the chance to get a 20-yard strike in on goal, but his shot was comfortably saved by Marcus Bettinelli.

With nine minutes remaining though, Norwich found their opening goal when Wes Hoolahan got in behind the Fulham defence before pulling the ball back for Johnson to provide the routine finish from eight yards.

Three minutes later, it was 2-0 after Redmond was given time and space on the edge of the area before curling the ball into the far corner from 20 yards.

Just before the break, Fulham should have halved the deficit but Hugo Rodallega could only lob the ball over the crossbar after being played through on goal.
