Decisive figure's brace lifts Norwich City past Southampton

Jovon Makama turned the game in the 48th minute with a close-range finish, as Norwich City beat Southampton 2-1. The forward's two-goal display proved the difference at Carrow Road.

He converted Jacob Wright's cross from a recycled corner (48.), guiding a right-footed finish into the bottom right.

He then doubled his tally from very close range (61.), finishing low to the left.

Makama finished with three attempts, two on target, and six touches in the box, plus four possession regains that kept the Canaries on the front foot.

His near-post movement and strength in duels opened lanes for crosses, repeatedly unsettling Saints' centre-backs and ensuring the Canaries controlled the decisive moments.

The Canaries visit Preston North End next, while the Saints host Coventry City.
