Interim Derby County manager Matt Hamshaw said the 1-1 draw against Norwich City was a great result given their seven-game Championship losing run and the sacking of Paul Warne as head coach on Friday.

Hamshaw told BBC Radio Derby: "That performance gives me huge pride. It was really hard to pick the group up.

"They lads were devastated because Paul's a good guy and the lads really respected and liked him. But he was fully aware that the run results haven't been good enough.

"I thought we had the better opportunities and could easily have come away with three points.

"The club and fans are amazing. I'm really pleased that the fans have something to shout about rather than just doom and gloom. Today is a really good, positive day."
