Norwich City suffered their second defeat of the week on Saturday as they lost 2-1 to Derby County in the Championship.
The Canaries also lost 2-1 to Arsenal in the League Cup on Tuesday night, which had ended a nine-game unbeaten streak.
Daniel Farke’s men still came into the clash with Derby unbeaten in eight Championship matches, with the visitors ending Norwich’s excellent run.
It was Norwich who should have taken the lead early in the first-half. Marco Stiepermann was sent clear on goal but his effort smashed against the crossbar and away.
Josh Murphy was then tackled by Derby goalkeeper Scott Carson just as he looked set to score, with Norwich feeling as though they should have been given a penalty – with no decision made by the referee.
Derby then took the lead in the last minute of the first-half. David Nugent found space on the edge of the box before curling the ball past Angus Gunn.
Norwich defender Timm Klose scored his first goal of the season in the 71st minute as he powered home a back-post header to pull the club level.
However, Sam Winnall won the game for Derby when he pounced on a parry from Gunn in the 83rd minute to tap the ball into an empty net.
