Half-Time Report: Robert Snodgrass pulls Norwich City level

By Christopher Dodd, Reporter | 04 January 2014

Fulham are drawing 1-1 with Norwich City at half time in the FA Cup, thanks to first-half goals from Darren Bent and Robert Snodgrass.

A late first-half goal from Robert Snodgrass has pulled Norwich City level at 1-1 with Fulham at half time in their FA Cup encounter this afternoon.

Josh Murphy looked to push Norwich into the lead after only three minutes as he unleashed a right-footed shot from outside the box that went a little too high and wide to the left of the goal.

The young Norwich striker was at the centre of things again as he was given the ball inside the box, although his effort was saved in the centre of goal by David Stockdale.

The hosts wasted another great chance midway through the half when Steven Whittaker found himself with time on the ball, only to see his effort from inside the box saved by Stockdale.

Darren Bent came close for Fulham in the 28th minute as the Englishman tried to convert with his left, however, Mark Bunn pulled off a good save to keep the score level.

The visitors then had the striker to thank in the 40th minute as he put them ahead, after good link-up play with Chris David allowed Bent to convert with his right foot.

However, Snodgrass delivered a late blow for the visitors when he equalised for Norwich right on the stroke of half time with an easy conversion from the centre of goal.
