Norwich 2-1 Everton

Grant Holt headed a dramatic stoppage-time winner as Norwich came from behind with a late double to beat Everton 2-1 at Carrow Road.

Strikes from Kei Kamara and Grant Holt ensured Norwich took all three points after Leon Osman had given Everton a foothold in the match with a first-half header.

Everton boss David Moyes: “We had controlled the game, but were wasteful in the second half when we had chances to get another goal, and we were always going to be put under pressure at the end.

“I cannot understand why he plays three minutes and 20 seconds for the stoppage time, but he has got that discretion, although I disagree with it.

“We passed it well enough and tried to do the right things, but we were not good enough in the final third – but one thing is for sure, we did not deserve to lose.

“There is still chances for us to do it (get into the top four), but we are going to have to be very good to do it. However, we should have seen this one out, if we have any real ambitions, then we have to make sure we do
