Norwich City picked up their first victory in eight Championship matches with a 3-1 home win over Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday evening – and here's your chance to rate how the Canaries players performed.
City found themselves behind at half-time thanks to a well-worked opener from former Ipswich striker Jordan Rhodes.
However second-half goals from James Maddison, Timm Klose and Nelson Oliveira turned the entire Carrow Road atmosphere on its head – and with it, City's home supporters could relish their first win in exactly three months.
Rhodes' cute opener had left a disgruntled Carrow Road ready to burst – but City's trio of salvos made life look a whole lot brighter for Daniel Farke's Canaries.
Alex Pritchard – starting for the first time this season following injury – made the equaliser that Maddison took in his stride, before Klose's bullet header dispatched Maddison's corner.

City had gone seven games without a league win before Saturday evening, their previous victory coming at East Anglian derby rivals Ipswich back in October.
