Championship: Norwich thrash Hull as Burnley miss chance to go top

Today at 11:16 AM

• Borja Sainz caps off 4-0 defeat of Tigers
• Preston goal disallowed in goalless Lancashire derby

Norwich maintained their impressive surge up the Championship table with a 4-0 demolition of a ragged Hull side at Carrow Road. The Tigers went into the match with three straight wins behind them but were no match for a rampant home outfit who scored twice in each half to make it four wins in six games.

Helped by some desperately poor defending, Norwich scored two early goals in quick succession through Marcelino Nunez and Josh Sargent to take control. They could then afford a missed penalty from Sargent before wrapping up a comfortable win through Kaide Gordon - with his first goal since his loan move from Liverpool - and an eighth of the season from Spanish flyer Borja Sainz.
