Football: Norwich hold on for win

NORWICH: Norwich showed they are settling down in the Premier League after recording their second successive win in beating Sunderland 2-1. Goals by Leon Barnett and Steve Morison gave the hosts a 2-0 lead before Black Cats midfielder Kieran Richardson scored late on to give the home fans some nervy moments. However, the Canaries held on to move to ninth in the table while defeat meant further misery for Norwich’s former captain Steve Bruce as the Sunderland handler sees his side lying just a point above the bottom three.
