Norwich City's Premier League recovery continued with a goalless draw against in-form Wolves.

The Canaries' picked up their seventh point from a possible nine and had opportunities to snatch all three points at Carrow Road.

Teemu Pukki had the best chance of the afternoon in the second half after he was played through by Lukas Rupp, but Jose Sa was equal to his snapshot from close range.

Dean Smith's men are now unbeaten in three matches and travel to the north east on Tuesday to face relegation rivals Newcastle United.
