Dean Smith was labelled a ‘killer’ by Bruno Lage in the build-up to this tie and the Norwich boss lived up to the moniker by ending Wolves’ hopes of winning their first FA Cup since 1960.
Lage had noted how Norwich’s last two matches – wins over Everton and Watford – had resulted in the sack for Rafael Benitez and Claudio Ranieri.
The Wolves manager is in no such danger himself after a fine start to life at Molineux yet he will be hugely disappointed at how this ended, as Norwich progressed to the fifth round thanks to Kenny McLean’s header in first-half stoppage time.
