Nottingham Forest 1-2 Norwich: Jonny Howson's and Graham Dorrans's second-half strikes earn Canaries their third straight Championship victory

Norwich fought back from behind to inflict Nottingham Forest's first defeat of the season at the City Ground, as second-half goals from Jonny Howson and Graham Dorrans earned the Canaries a 2-1 win.

Apostolos Vellios' third goal in three games had put Forest ahead in the 40th minute, as he swept home after an Eric Lichaj header had hit the post.

But Howson scrambled Norwich level in the 52nd minute before an outstanding strike from Dorrans earned them a third consecutive victory, bolstering their position as one of the favourites for promotion from the Sky Bet Championship.
