Norwich staged a remarkable second-half comeback to defeat Watford 3-2 at Carrow Road, securing back-to-back Sky Bet Championship victories. Dutch striker Myron Boadu had given the Hornets a 2-0 lead with two well-taken goals before the break. However, the Canaries erupted after the interval, scoring three times in 17 minutes through Ben Chrisene, Anthony Musaba, and Paris Maghoma. The win marked another difficult afternoon for Watford manager Alessio Dionisi, whose side surrendered a commanding advantage. Norwich dominated possession early but lacked cutting edge until the turnaround. The victory extended their unbeaten run and boosted morale under Philippe Clement, who praised his team’s resilience and response to criticism.

The match began with Norwich creating chances, but Watford struck first in the 10th minute when Boadu finished a swift counter-attack. He doubled the lead in the 27th minute after a long ball from Mattie Pollock. Norwich pulled one back in the 54th minute via Chrisene’s volley, then equalized in the 62nd as Musaba raced clear and shot powerfully. The decisive goal came in the 71st minute when Mathias Kvistgaarden set up Maghoma for a clinical finish. Watford struggled to recover, and Norwich held on comfortably for a statement win.
