Norwich City’s play-off hopes have all but faded after a drab 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa at Villa Park this weekend.
Jonathan Kodjia’s goals in either half for Villa was enough to secure all three points in the tie as they held on in the second half, despite massive Norwich pressure.
Norwich mounted an assault on the Villa goal in the second period but were unable to make their possession count as they missed a number of good chances and wasted set-piece opportunities.
The Canaries were pushing for an equaliser up until the 87th minute, when Kodjia’s second made sure of the result and gave Norwich no chance of coming back into the match.
The second goal came from the Aston Villa goalkeeper; Sam Johnstone’s long clearance went all the way through and Kodjia slipped between Ryan Bennett and Michael McGovern to tap the ball in.
