Neil Adams hails "fantastic" performance against Blackburn Rovers

Norwich City manager Neil Adams has admitted that he was impressed with how his team overcame a slow start to record a 3-1 win over Blackburn Rovers at Carrow Road.

The Canaries fell behind to a first-minute goal before late strikes from Lewis Grabban and Bradley Johnson earned three points for the Championship outfit, and Adams believes that his team deserved to condemn Rovers to their first defeat of the season.

The 48-year-old is quoted by BBC Sport as saying: "Aside from the first 15 minutes, I thought it was a fantastic performance. I thought we were tremendous all over the pitch and looked a threat left, right and centre.

"We moved the ball well, scored three goals and I think that we deserved to win the game."

The result sees Norwich move up to sixth place in the standings.
