Norwich City 3, Manchester City 4 - What the nationals said
The national newspapers' views on Norwich City's 4-3 defeat at home to Manchester City.
Sunday Mirror: 'Manchester City showed the resolve of champions at Carrow Road in a nail-biting battle but Samir Nasri showed the temperament of a novice.'
The Mail on Sunday: 'Norwich fans, who have seen their team win five of their last six matches at home, must have feared City were in the mood to replicate the six-goal hiding they administered last season.'
The Observer: 'As the minutes ticked down and Norwich searched for an equaliser, a series of leisurely substitutions from the City camp gave rise to agonised howls from the home fans.'
