Under-23s beaten by league leaders West Ham

Norwich City Under-23s were beaten 4-0 by West Ham United U23s at Dagenham & Redbridge’s Chigwell Construction Stadium in the Premier League 2 on Monday night.

Facing the Hammers, who remain unbeaten in their 2019-20 league campaign, was always going to be a tough task for the Canaries, but for the majority of the game’s first hour it looked as though there was little to separate the two sides.

The all important second goal so often changes games, and once West Ham secured it, they capitalised on City’s response with two further second-half strikes. A late flurry of chances for David Wright’s side weren’t enough to get a consolation goal for City.
