Wes Hoolahan hails "brilliant" Alex Neil

Norwich City's Wes Hoolahan praises "brilliant" manager Alex Neil after the team secure a place in the Championship playoff final.

Wes Hoolahan has said that Alex Neil has been "brilliant" since taking charge of Norwich City following the club's win over Ipswich Town in the Championship playoffs.

The Canaries claimed a 4-2 aggregate win over their fierce rivals after securing a 3-1 victory at Carrow Road this afternoon, just over four months after Neil's appointment.

Hoolahan, who opened the scoring with a penalty, told Sky Sports News: "It was always going to be tough but we're looking forward to facing Boro next Monday now.

"I'm happy enough that [the penalty] went in. Alex Neil has been brilliant since he came in. All the players have risen to the challenge."

Norwich will face Middlesbrough in the final at Wembley next Monday.
