# Our man of the match: Newcastle (H)

Norwich picked up a massive win today against Newcastle. There is no doubting how big the three points gained today will be in the fight for survival.

Goals from Timm Klose, Dieumerci Mbokani and Martin Olsson secured the win for the Canaries, with Aleksandar Mitrovic scoring both of Newcastle’s goals after he came off the bench for the away side.

There were plenty of fantastic performances from Norwich players today. Jonny Howson, Martin Olsson, Steven Naismith and Dieumerci Mbokani.

However, my man of the match was the Big Swiss defender; Timm Klose

He was presented with Norwich’s player of the month award for March during the warm-up today and he increased his growing reputation in his first game during April.

The big central defender was immense at the back and capped it off with a superb header in the first half for his first Norwich goal. He won virtually everything he went for.

The amount of headers and tackles he won was simply astounding. How on earth a player this good is playing for us is beyond me. If we had of signed him in the summer then we would be well clear of the bottom three by now, no doubt at all.
