The scoreline will ultimately detract from Norwich’s excellence, however unfair that might be. Daniel Farke’s team equalised through a Teemu Pukki penalty and may well have gone on to win the game had it not been for their typically vulnerable defence letting them down at the end, when Alli’s deflected cross landed on the head of Son at the back post.
For Norwich, it was a night that summarised their season. They played some lovely football, which was far more attractive than anything produced by their more illustrious opponents, but their defence was far too easily exposed in the key moments. They remain six points away from safety
