West Bromwich Albion 2, Norwich City 1 - What the nationals said
The national newspapers' views on Norwich City's 2-1 defeat at West Brom.
Sunday Mirror: 'The Canaries came close to a share of the spoils despite the absence of key striker Grant Holt…In addition to his goal, Snodgrass was always asking problems of Albion.'
The Mail on Sunday: 'If there was an element of goalkeeping fallibility about Norwich's opener, Mark Bunn will also have been unhappy about his inability to prevent Albion's equaliser.'
The Observer: 'It was a rare start for Romelu Lukaku, who has been kept out of the side for most of the season by Shane Long, but he justified his selection on Saturday.'
