I WILL NOT PLAY AGAIN:Norwich City best player has decided to quit due career..
Norwich head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup admitted keeper Angus Gunn was a doubt for Scotland’s forthcoming Nations League matches after picking up a knock in his side’s 4-0 win over Hull in the Championship.
Gunn, who has established himself as Scotland’s number over the past year, was injured during the closing stages of the first half at Carrow Road and did not appear after the interval, with understudy George Long taking his place.
“Angus jumped to take the ball and took a knock in the ribs,” said Thorup. “He was in some discomfort and was unable to come out for the second half.
“It’s too early to say if he will be able to go away with Scotland – we’ll know more once he has had a scan.”
Thorup was delighted with his side’s performance as they made it four wins in six games to maintain their climb up the table after a slow start.
“We are getting better week to week, I think that is clear to see. There are still things to work on – but we are certainly getting there,” he said.
“In the best moments I thought we were really good and played at a high level – we created lots of chances and scored some really good goals, especially the second one.
“We also showed a great energy out there, with players supporting each other in the difficult moments, working hard together to make sure we got the right result.”
Norwich took the game by the scruff of the neck early on by scoring twice in the space of five minutes.
Marcelino Nunez set the ball rolling on 16 minutes by firing home from just outside the area after being set up by Sainz, who then crossed for Josh Sargent to slide home the second.
