Match in Five Sentences: Norwich City beat Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 at Carrow Road. Mathias Kvistgaarden headed in the opener in the 31st minute after replacing the injured Mohamed Touré early on. Edmond-Paris Maghoma swept in a second (38.), giving the Canaries control before the break. The Canaries registered 19 attempts to four and had 60.2% possession, with Seny Dieng busy throughout. The Canaries rise from 18th to 17th and visit Leicester next, while the Owls host Southampton.
Player of the Match: Mathias Kvistgaarden led the line with four shots and 10 touches in the box, scoring the decisive first half header after striking the bar moments earlier.
Stat of the Match: The Owls produced just one shot on target, highlighting how little they threatened.
Three Things We Learned: An enforced change helped the hosts, with Mathias Kvistgaarden replacing Touré because of injury and then providing the breakthrough. Jacob Wright created Maghoma's goal and finished with two key passes, showing control from midfield. The Owls ended with four attempts and 39.8% possession, and they remain 24th in the table.
