The victory over Millwall was the second in a row for the Canaries.

Sargent gave the hosts the lead with a cool right-footed strike.

He wrapped up three points for the hosts with a low finish inside the box.

  • Relive Norwich's Championship win against Millwall as it happened

Millwall dropped to seventh in the Championship after a victory.

The Canaries came into the match off the back of their first league win of the season, aided by a pair of early goals.

The game against Millwall started differently, as neither side offered much in attack and the visitors only managed a single shot on target.

Prior to the start of the game, it was announced that a general meeting would be held in September to decide if Milwaukee Brewers owner Mark Attanasio would be appointed as a director.

The owner of the Major League Baseball side has been linked with investing in the Canaries, and one American gave the hosts the lead.

After working on a ball from Dowell, he was able to slot in with a powerful shot.

His second shot was just as good as his first. Gary Rowett was furious after the goal and he was involved in a fight with Scott Malone in the build-up.

There was to be no repeat of Millwall's last minute heroics against SWANSEA, as they were defeated by the Canaries.

Dean Smith was on the radio.

In the first half, Millwall made it difficult for us. We had a lot of the ball but they made it hard for us to find space in the middle.

The players took on board the message at the half that Danel and Dowell should link up in the middle of the field.

It was a good all-round performance and I was happy with the clean sheet. He hasn't played a lot of games in his preferred position but he's certainly grabbed hold of it and rose to the challenge, we all believe in him, he hasn't played a lot of games in his preferred position but he's certainly grabbed hold of it and rose
