Player Ratings: Norwich 2-3 Hannover

Norwich lost 3-2 in a thrilling encounter in the final friendly of pre-season against 2. Bundesliga side Hannover 96.

Hannover opened the scoring in the 5th minute, and doubled their lead shortly after. Not long into the second half they added a third. Wes Hoolahan clawed two back for City in the 52nd and 58th minutes. Norwich continued to fight until the end of the game, but were unable to draw level in front of their own fans.

This final friendly wraps up a pre-season that has given Alex Neil a lot to think about before his team face Blackburn Rovers in their openeing Championship fixture on August 6th.

Who showed Neil that they deserve to start and who has thrown their place into jeopardy? Find out in our Player Ratings.
