Norwich build down the left wing. Hool to Steip, he finds Murphy but ends up with Naismith, he looks for Maddison, and he loses to Sarr, feeds Aribo on the run.. looks for Clarke but Frank Underwood intervenes. Tettey to Stiepermann, he loses it but wins it back, Pinto and Martin exchange passes. Tettey has it, left to Frank Butcher, he finds Wes H, draws a foul? No, JJ manages to clear it.
Frank has it, on the left, to Maddison, now to Murphy who comes short. Goes right to Martin. He finds Pinto, JJ chases him down, they knock it about around our area. Eventually there was a shot but easily blocked and they build from the back again.
Naismith to Pinto on the right, to Hoolihan, back to Pinto, on his left, crosses to Maddison, edge of box, shot blocked by Joe, cleared to Novak, holds it up well, to Clarke, to Novak on the run, but Pinto read his clever pass and clears.
Pinto has it again, does well but KAG and Novak break it down and they get a free kick.
Phillips has it. Long. Frank wins the header, falls to RCC, to Novak who tries to return it but no dice.
Maddison has it in their half. Looks for Naismith, he finds Pinto, back to Martin, carries it forward to Tettey. 1-2 with Hoolihan, he is under pressure, out and back, to Murphy on the box, Konsa makes the tackle, but Murphy takes it back and score his second.
We restart. KAG down the left, takes on Martin. Crosses... oh Clarke had a chance to shoot, didn't take it. Eventually loses it and then fouls the tackler, Stieplelemneran.
This is a good test for our U23's though. Should try to continue to play, it is a decent learning away game, and some of our youngsters will grow from the experience.

I'd throw Lapslie or RHF on for Clarke soon, give the latter a rest ahead of Rotherham on Saturday and like you say, gives an U23 some great experience
Stiepermamnanmner picks it up, has a shot, no danger and we have it at the back. Phillips to KAG, to JJ but not a great ball, and Pinto wins it back.
Martin has it, and again they knock it about at the back. Hoolihan now, left to Frankly My Dear, now to Tettey's Teabag. He pings it forward, RCC gets it but when he finds Aribo, those pricks foul him.
Free kick given away, but Aribo rescues it. Back to Phillips, long kick and now Pinto has it.

They kick off! We intercept quickly with Clarke, and we go forward, no foul and they get a throw.
They concede a throw, it was Frank McAvennie's fault.
...more goals in this.
Pinto has it again, does well but KAG and Novak break it down and they get a free kick.
The boss is happy...
2-1 to City Murphy after a measured build up.
