Injuries to four or five key players forced Williams to included 3 schoolboys in his starting line up and whilst that obviously had a big impact on the result, the overall performance was disappointing.
Ben Parker opened the visitors' account just four minutes into the game when City were guilty of giving the ball away on the edge of the box, allowing the Leeds striker to beat Shane Herbert with a shot that went in off the upright.
City went close with a Matthew Halliday header that hit the side netting, but this was a rare attack by the Canaries as Leeds took the game by the scruff of the neck.

It went from bad to worse for City on 53 minutes when Gavin Rotherby beat Joe Lewis from close range.
Lewis, who had come on at half time, denied Rotherby a second with a stunning save but from the resulting corner Smith was on hand to tap in his second.
Danny Crow scored a consolation goal fourteen minutes from time with a 30-yard free kick from a tight angle.
Sub Not Used: S. Willis
Top Canary: Danny Crow.
