When your trying to get a goal and that corner hasn't even beaten the first man.
It hasn't been Albion's day.

Wolves are doing well but keep giving silly fouls at the back. Wish we would play two up front…

Wolves 1-0 West Brom
A West Brom corner drops to Callum Styles on the edge of the box and he tries to hit it first time but slices well wide.

Jovon Makama is on in his place.

Albion simply haven't turned up yet, I'd be thrilled with a draw, but it's looking unlikely.
Bereft Baggie, Chippenham
Norwich 1-1 Bolton
Mo Toure is down on the deck getting treatment for Norwich after a coming together with Bolton's Ben Davies, and he's looking in serious discomfort.
Wolves 1-0 West Brom
Rodrigo Gomes is slipped in behind by Hugo Bueno and he's one-on-one... Max O'Leary is out to make another big save though.
And it was offside anyway, so wouldn't have counted.

It's been better from Albion in the second half because they are pushing Wolves back and are getting balls into the box.

Kieran Trippier fizzes in a free-kick from the left for Wolves but Albion are able to force it behind for a corner.
Tripper then runs over to the right to take the corner. It drops for Jean-Ricner Bellegarde on the edge of the box but he skies it into the stands.
Norwich 1-1 Bolton

Former Bolton boss on BBC Radio Manchester
Both teams are very wide open. It's attack after attack.
Bolton do pose as attacking threat especially away from home.
Norwich 1-1 Bolton
My word, what a start to this game.
Norwich think they've retaken the lead as Mo Toure steers home but the flag is up for offside in the build-up.
Wolves 1-0 West Brom
West Brom cannot make anything of the corner and Wolves make another change.
Jordan James is on in place of Marshall Munetsi.

Thierry Gale, the matchwinner for Bolton last week, cuts inside from the left and fires an excellent low drive in at the near post.
All square again.
Wolves 1-0 West Brom
West Brom win another free-kick in a promising position about 25 yards out but Callum Styles catches the top of the wall and it's deflected behind.
Norwich 1-0 Bolton
Simeon Jackson
Former Norwich City striker on BBC Radio Norfolk
What a strike, what an absolute strike!
That is what you want from your big man up front. Toure just strikes the leather off the ball. Unbelievable strike.
What a start for Norwich!
Mo Toure (5 mins)
A perfect start for Norwich City at Carrow Road.
Andre Brooks with a lovely touch and spin on halfway for the Canaries to break forward at speed.
He feeds Mo Toure on the right and the Australian rifles in a thunderbolt at the near post.
No stopping those and Toure has a sixth league goal of the season already.
Norwich 0-0 Bolton
The game hasn't really settled yet. You can see that both sides are just trying to figure things out.
Wolves 1-0 West Brom
Wolves with their first changes of the afternoon.
Fer Lopez, the matchwinner as things stand, makes way along with Mateus Mane.
Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is on for his first appearance of the season. Tommy Doyle is also introduced.

Dear me, Isaac Price will be disappointed with that.

Norwich City have won six of their last eight league games against Bolton Wanderers (D1 L1), with this their first since doing the double over the Trotters in 2018-19.
Bolton have lost four of their last five league visits to Norwich (D1) since a 2-0 victory in November 2000 under Sam Allardyce.
Norwich haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 14 league games; in England’s top four tiers, only Preston (22), Chelsea (20), and Burnley (15) are on longer ongoing runs.
Bolton could lose three consecutive away league games for the first time since January 2022 (run of 7).
Since his league debut in February, only Cyle Larin (15) has scored more goals in the Championship than Norwich’s Mohamed Touré (13), while no player in that time has more goal involvements (16).
