Jarvis And Crow On Target As Canaries Defeat The Dons

Ryan Jarvis and Danny Crow were both on target today, as Adrian Boothroyd's side returned to their winning ways with a 2-0 victory over Wimbledon at Colney. Today's win means that City have done the double over Wimbledon this season, as well as knocking them out of the F.A.Youth Cup.
City almost opened the scoring inside the first two minutes, but captain Greg Crane saw his powerful header from a Nicky Howell free kick strike the post.
At the other end, City keeper Aaron Osborne was in tremendous form, as he foiled Wimbledon striker Danny Morgan with what turned out to be the first of several outstanding saves.
City were missing the services of Adam Smith who was injured in last weeks narrow defeat at the hands of Ipswich Town, however Lee Blackburn was doing a good job in the middle of the park and a well struck volley brought a smart save from David Martin in the visitors' goal. Incidentally, Martin is the son of former West Ham defender Alvin Martin, who was watching the game.
City took the lead deep in first half injury time when Nicky Howell's through ball released Crow, who lifted the ball over the advancing keeper to allow Jarvis the simplest of tap ins at the far post.
City were forced onto the back foot in the second half, but some stout defending from the Canaries rearguard kept chances down to a minimum, and when Morgan once again got sight of goal, Osborne again was there to deny him.
City sealed victory 4 minutes from time, when Jarvis put Crow clear, and from the tightest of angles he slid the ball under Martin.

City line up: A. Osborne, Willis, J.Osborne, Crane, Chick, Sinclair, Howell, Blackburn, Jarvis, Crow, Woodrow.
Subs not used: Clarke, Herbert, Halliday, Eagle, Howlett.
