    Jason Puncheon is enjoying himself. The Palace forward is causing all sorts of bother for the Norwich full-backs and is again clipping in a cross, which Norwich deal with.

    At the other end, Jonny Howson has a sniff with a half volley from the edge of the area but it's limp and off target.

    Norwich, again building from the back, but it all peters out down the left flank.

    Palace's Jordon Mutch gets a thorough clattering from Bradley Johnson, who wins the ball. Meaty stuff.

    Norwich fans won't need reminding that Damien Delaney is a former Ipswich town man, so that adds a bit of salt to the wound.

    Steven Whittaker cuts in and strikes one for the Canaries, but it's straight at Alex McCarthy.

  5. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 54 mins

    Norwich make a double change with Lewis Grabban and Alex Tettey coming off. Cameron Jerome and Nathan Redmond come on.

    Nearly an instant reply from Norwich, as Bradley Johnson stoops low to meet a header five yards out, but keeper Alex McCarthy is in the right place to save.

    Norwich City 0-2 Crystal Palace (Damien Delaney)

    As far as goals from corners go, this is top notch.

    Norwich fail to spot Pape Souare (23) roaming on the edge of the area - Jason Puncheon (42) does though and the Sengalese nods it to the far post where Damien Delaney (27) has a simple finish.

    Palace start the second half. Can they keep their noses in front?

    The sides are back out. Norwich boss Alex Neil looks angry. But then again he always looks angry.

    Wilfried Zaha's goal was just one of three touches he had in the Norwich penalty area in that first half.

    He deserved to celebrate this one. It was a lovely, tidy, athletic finish by Wilfried Zaha.

  15. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:47

    Norwich City 0-1 Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace will be very pleased. They've shown that bit of extra Premier League nous, absorbing a long period of Norwich pressure and then hitting a sucker punch.

    Lewis Grabban poked wide a great chance for the Canaries early on. But it's Wilfried Zaha's lovely controlled volley that has the visitors in front.

    Norwich win the first corner of the game, apparently. It's sent in by Robbie Brady, met by Bradley Johnson at the back post, and drifts wide.

  17. Norwich City 0-1 Crystal Palacepublished at 44 mins

    And now Robbie Brady has a better effort for the hosts, curling into the arms of Alex McCarthy from 20 yards.

  18. Norwich City 0-1 Crystal Palacepublished at 43 mins

    Alex Tettey has a go from long range for Norwich. It's wayward and slightly desperate.

  19. Norwich City 0-1 Crystal Palacepublished at 41 mins

    Carrow Road is very quiet. Apart from a contingent in red and blue in one corner, who are making some noise. 

    Palace come close again, as Glenn Murray brings down a long ball and fires straight at John Ruddy.

    Norwich have learned a valuable lesson in making the most of your possession when you've got it. They're caught napping and Palace are celebrating.

    Jason Puncheon shows his skills by making space down the right. He clips the ball to the back post whereWilfried Zahamanages to shape his body to send a side-footed volley towards goal. John Ruddy gets something on it but only pushes it into the net.
