Norwich City Football Club secured a significant 4-2 away victory against Bristol City on Saturday, 18 April 2026, boosting the team’s hopes during the final stretch of the season.
The match, held at Ashton Gate Stadium before an attendance of 23,149, saw the visitors overcome an early setback. Bristol City took the lead just two minutes into the game through a Sam Morsy strike, marking the first defeat for interim head coach Roy Hodgson in his fourth game in charge.
With head coach Philippe Clement serving a touchline ban, first-team coach Ryan Garry delivered the half-time team talk that inspired a turnaround. Striker Mohamed Touré, an Australian international who joined Norwich City from Randers FC in January, proved decisive by scoring a second-half hat-trick in just 25 minutes. His goals came in the 51st, 70th, and 75th minutes. Defender José Córdoba added a fourth goal for the visitors in the 78th minute.
The victory lifts Norwich to 61 points in 9th place in the Championship table. With three matches remaining this season, the club is now within eight points of the play-off positions.
