Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl hailed his team's "outstanding" mentality after they staged a second-half fightback to win at Norwich City.

The Owls boss reflected on the fact that his side scored three second-half goals, just as they did in a 3-3 draw at Middlesbrough on Boxing Day, telling BBC Radio Sheffield:

"We played a strong Norwich who showed their quality in the first half, but I thought even at 2-0 there were moments we were in the game, though the transition moments were not clinical enough.

"At half-time we brought two players in, changed the shape, changed the pressing line to a little bit higher up.

"To have this mentality to come back, after Middlesbrough and now in Norwich, is outstanding. It felt really good because we had momentum against us and now we have a little bit back."

Wednesday's win lifted them above Norwich into 10th place, five points off the play-off positions.
