Norwich City manager Alex Neil praises his side after Nottingham Forest win

Norwich City have beaten "the form side in the Championship", claims manager Alex Neil following their 3-1 victory over Nottingham Forest.

Norwich City manager Alex Neil has hailed his side after they beat Nottingham Forest 3-1 in the Championship yesterday.

Goals from Jonny Howson, Cameron Jerome and Wes Hoolahan maintained the Canaries' strong run of form, and they now sit just three points off the top of the Championship table.

Neil told BBC Sport: "That's certainly up there with the best performances since I have been here.

"We were up against probably the form side in the Championship, who had only lost one out of 10 before today, so I believe, and the way we dominated the match was extremely pleasing.

"I thought our movement and quality on the ball were top class and we could have a lot more than three goals with the chances we created and the crosses we got into their box."

Norwich next face Brighton & Hove Albion on April 3.
