Norwich City beat Derby County 2-1 on Tuesday at Carrow Road to make it back-to-back Championship wins, with Liam Gibbs netting the second half decider after Mohamed Touré's opener and David Ozoh's leveller.

In the sixth minute, the Canaries won a penalty when Amankwah Forson was fouled by Derry Murkin.
