1-0 United.
James Weir with a vital goal. Tap in at the near post.

Replays showing the ball might've gone out of play in the lead up to United's goal.
Need to see a clearer replay.

James Weir with his 2nd goal of the game gives United a 2-0 lead.
Cross from Varela and Weir showing great technique takes his goal so well and cuts the cross back past the keeper.
Excellent finish.

Completely undeserved.

Norwich now down to 10 men after grant was shown a 2nd yellow for what looked a clear dive.

Unbelievable!
10 man Norwich may have snatched a draw here from absolutely nowhere. A shot is deflected past Pereira at the far post.
2-2.

FT: United 2-2 Norwich
Some sloppy defending from United right at the end gifts Norwich a point.
United will now probably need to get something at Reading away next Thursday.
