Stoke City 0-3 Norwich City: Canaries boost Championship play-off hopes and pile pressure on Potters

Gabriel Sara celebrates scoring for Norwich
Gabriel Sara scored his 10th Championship goal of the season at Stoke City

Norwich comfortably beat relegation-threatened Stoke at the bet365 Stadium to boost their Championship play-off chances.

Kenny McLean and Borja Sainz linked up to play in Josh Sargent to score his eighth goal in his past nine appearances and give the Canaries the lead.

And the pair combined again to set up Gabriel Sara’s 10th league goal of the season four minutes later before Ashley Barnes swept home his side’s third on the hour mark.

Norwich remain sixth in the table, while Stoke sit just two points clear of the relegation places.
