# Our man of the match: Nottingham Forest (A)

Norwich City beat Nottingham Forest 2-1 away from home as they returned to winning ways on Saturday.

The Canaries came into the game after losing 1-0 to Stoke before the international break and got off to the worst possible start.

Lewis Grabban put Forest ahead after five minutes with a well-struck volley past Tim Krul.

Onel Hernandez and Marco Stiepermann both missed excellent chances, before Timm Klose made it 1-1 in the second-half with a deft header.

The Swiss defender then completed the comeback to make it 2-1 after he followed up on Rhodes’ header to smash the ball in from close range.

Picking a man of the match has been difficult, with two players standing up above the rest.

Mo Leitner and Timm Klose were the two standouts for Norwich, with our man of the match award going to… Timm Klose!

The defender has now scored three goals in his last three appearances for Norwich, with two coming in the second-half against Forest.

He guided the ball in with a fine header for the equaliser, before picking up a good position in the box to score the winner.
