Darel Russell's late equaliser rescued a point for Norwich against Blackpool.

Jamie Cureton hit the woodwork early on as Norwich failed to take advantage of almost total domination.

And Blackpool went ahead from the spot after 55 minutes, Ben Burgess scoring following on-loan Fulham defender Elliot Omozusi's foul on Adam Hammill.

Subsitute Russell earned Norwich a draw with 16 minutes left, heading in after Dejan Stefanovic nodded on a corner from Wes Hoolahan.

Norwich manager Glenn Roeder:
"I will be working hard to bring someone in because it's obvious we need a big physical presence up front.

"I have been trying hard all week, and I will be trying again on Sunday. I know the man I want but his club are being very resolute in trying to keep him.

"But I'll keep at it because I want to bring someone in before the transfer deadline. I don't really want to rely on the loan market."

Blackpool manager Simon Grayson:
"I think we were good value for the point and there's no doubt this is a positive result for us.

"This is never an easy place to come to and we are pleased to leave with a point even though it's obviously slightly disappointing that we couldn't hold on for all three.

"All four goals we've conceded this season have been from set pieces and that is something we will have to eradicate if we are going to win games. But overall, I'm happy enough with a point."
