A 95th-minute strike from substitute Adam Idah sealed a comeback win for Norwich City against Bristol City at Ashton Gate.

The game had looked as if it was heading for a draw until the striker arrived to slot home Kenny McLean's cross.

Bristol City took the lead in the 34th-minute when Jason Knight finished well from Mark Sykes' ball in.

But a George Tanner own goal in the 59th minute put Norwich level before Idah's injury-time winner.
