Norwich’s Championship season got off to a poor start as they were beaten 1-0 by Cardiff in a game that saw both teams have players sent off.
The Canaries were relegated from the Premier League last season after finishing bottom and are tipped as one of the favourites to bounce back up.
However, they went a goal down just minutes into the second half when Romaine Sawyers struck on his Bluebirds debut.

Perry Ng was then sent off for a second bookable offence but Norwich were unable to capitalise on the man advantage - which lasted only 12 minutes in any case before captain Grant Hanley was dismissed for picking up a second yellow card.
