Marcelino Nunez’s first-half free-kick proved a matchwinner for the Canaries.
Norwich manager David Wagner praised his side’s fans for their backing after the 1-0 derby win against Ipswich at Carrow Road .
“The atmosphere in the ground was fantastic, the best since I have seen here, and you could see the affect it had on the players,” said Wagner. “From where we were earlier in the season, 17th in the table, to where we are now speaks volumes about the spirit and togetherness in the squad. A game of few clear-cut chances was settled by a long range free-kick from Nunez six minutes before the break.
Conor Chaplin and substitute Ali Al-Hamadi both missed late second-half chances but Norwich keeper Angus Gunn was largely untroubled. “I would certainly have liked to have seen us create more chances and be better on the ball but it was our third game in a busy week and it doesn’t always go the way you want it to.
