Norwich player ratings: Arsenal (A)

Norwich City crashed out of the League Cup on Tuesday night as they lost 2-1 to Premier League side Arsenal.

The Canaries led for the majority of the game, but a late equaliser followed by a winner in extra-time saw Arsenal clinch progression into the last eight.

Josh Murphy opened the scoring for Norwich in the first-half. James Maddison slotted an excellent ball through before Murphy clipped it over the goalkeeper to make it 1-0.

Angus Gunn was forced to make multiple excellent saves throughout the night, with one exceptional save from a Rob Holding header in the first-half.

Despite their stout defending at times, Arsenal finally found their goal. Poor defending from a corner led to the home side converting as a near-post flick on was converted in the six-yard box.

The game then went into extra-time, with Arsenal securing the win as Norwich were undone from another corner, this time a header from six-yards out.

Here is how we rated the Canaries…
