# Our man of the match: Millwall (H)

Norwich propelled themselves to the top of the Championship on Saturday as they beat Millwall 4-3 at Carrow Road.

In a crazy game, Norwich scored twice in injury-time to secure the three points after it looked like Millwall had secured the win.

Millwall took the lead in the first-half through Tom Elliot, before second-half strikes from Teemu Pukki and Mo Leitner made it 2-1 – with Pukki also missing a penalty at 1-1.

The away side then scored twice in quick succession to make it 3-2, with Norwich looking all over the shop.

Then Norwich produced magic at Carrow Road as they scored in the 93rd and 97th minute through Jordan Rhodes and Pukki.

Picking a man of the match has been hard, with plenty of impressive performances.

Moritz Leitner, Max Aarons and Emi Buendia could all easily have won it, but our Norwich man of the match is… Teemu Pukki!

Forget the missed penalty, it was still a much better effort than some of the spot kicks we have seen this season.

His first goal was an excellent adjustded finish from Stiepermann’s cross, and the last goal was superb movement and a clever finish – mixed with some luck.

He worked the line well all afternoon and took his chances when they came his way. Four goals in two games and 10 for the season now for Pukki, what a signing.
