# Our man of the match: Leeds (H)

Norwich City came up short as they lost 3-0 to Leeds United at Carrow Road at the weekend.

The Canaries have now lost three of their first five games, with a draw against Birmingham and a win over Preston their only points of the campaign.

Leeds scored two goals in the first-half through Klich and Allioski, before Pablo Hernandez sealed the win in the second-half.

Good performances were few and far between among the Norwich players, but we are attempting to give a man of the match.

Emi Buendia looked bright off the bench, Jamal Lewis was impressive again at left-back.

But our Norwich man of the match is… Louis Thompson!

After two years out injured from League football, Thompson was asked to play a defensive right-midfielder position and still managed to show he has what it takes to start for Norwich.

Thompson worked hard and won a number of tackles to win the ball back, driving the ball forward with purpose when he could.
