Norwich City eased past Birmingham 3-1 on Friday night to move up to second in the Championship table.
Teemu Pukki opened the scoring after 12 minutes with his 17th of the season, only for Che Adams to strike Birmingham level within a minute.
Mario Vrancic then restored Norwich’s lead with a low drive from 25 yards, before Tom Trybull headed home from a corner to complete the scoreline.
There were many impressive displays for Norwich on the night, which makes picking a man of the match difficult.
Teemu Pukki, Mario Vrancic, Christoph Zimmermann, Emi Buendia and Jamal Lewis and Marco Stiepermann were all in contention.
But, our Norwich man of the match is… Tom Trybull!
The German central midfielder came into the starting line up for the injured Alex Tettey and ran the midfield.
He made countless important interceptions and tackles to win the ball back and set Norwich on the front foot to control the game.
Trybull also netted his first Championship goal of the season, doing well to get into the six-yard box and nod home from a corner.
With Tettey also set to miss the next two games, Trybull will be looking to impress against Sheffield United and Leeds to nail down his place in the side.
