Blackburn Rovers heap more pressure on beleaguered Norwich City boss David Wagner with a comfortable 3-1 win at Carrow Road.
Blackburn's top scorer Sammie Szmodics took his tally to nine goals for the season after his close-range second at Carrow Road
Wagner, who succeeded Dean Smith as Norwich boss in January when the Canaries were fifth, saw his afternoon get worse when Szmodics finished off a great move from close range soon after the break. Dolan's early goal - after lovely control from Joe Rankin-Costello's pass to set himself up - shattered what little, fragile, confidence the Canaries had.
Hwang had Norwich's first shot on target from the edge of the box after half an hour which garnered ironic cheers from the home crowd as Leopold Wahlstedt comfortably gathered it, while Marcelino Nunez headed straight at the Rovers keeper and Onel Hernandez fired just wide in the following few minutes.
Wagner made four changes straight away in a bid to get something from the game and they almost got a goal back when two of the substitutes - Placheta and Christian Fassnacht - combined as the latter saw a header from the former' cross palmed away by Wahlstedt.
