Norwich City wins four consecutive league games under Philippe Clement
Norwich City manager Philippe Clement wants a style of play where everyone scores except the goalkeeper, pointing to a recent surge that has moved the club up toward the Championship subtop.
Clement watched his side secure a 0-5 victory away at Bristol City. The result marks four consecutive league wins for Norwich, following a 0-4 victory against Derby County earlier in the week. The team scored nine goals across two away matches without conceding a single goal.
Climbing the Championship Standings
Norwich climbed to 21 points from 15 matches, moving up toward the Championship play-off places. Before this run, the club sat 12th in the standings with 18 points after 14 games. The turnaround follows a difficult mid-October period when The Canaries suffered consecutive 0-1 defeats to Southampton on October 14 and Portsmouth on October 17.
The recent winning streak includes victories over Charlton Athletic (1-3) and Watford (3-2), alongside the clean-sweep wins against Derby County and Bristol City.
Tactical Execution at Bristol City
Paris Maghoma opened the scoring for Norwich at Bristol City after 22 minutes with a precise shot into the corner following an assist from Sam Field. Goalkeeper Daniel Grimshaw preserved the lead with several key interventions during Bristol City’s first-half pressure.
Norwich pulled away after the interval. Harry Darling doubled the advantage in the 53rd minute with a header from a corner kick. Andre Brooks added a third goal three minutes later. Jovon Makama scored the fourth in the 70th minute, and Mathias Kvistgaarden sealed the 0-5 final score from the penalty spot.
