Norwich City head coach Philippe Clement has hailed his side's second half performance following their 2-1 home win against Sheffield United on Wednesday.

The Canaries were down a goal at the break thanks to Blades' Jair Riedewald volley on the 20th minute.

But a corner goal from Jack Stacey and a first time finish from Amankwah Forson, struck in the final 10 minutes sealed a memorable comeback win at Carrow Road.

"We knew it was a big task and I was not satisfied after this first half," Clement told BBC Radio Norfolk after the match.

"We were maybe too much in a rush, too nervous, maybe with too much will to score the goal and then they got transition moments.

"But it was good that we could turn it around at half-time. In the second half, the reaction of the team was brilliant.

"Very good football domination, taking these transitions out, creating a lot of chances, scoring two beautiful goals and managing the game also in the last minutes.

"A really, really good performance from the team in the second half."
