Norwich City are out of the Carabao Cup after a 2-1 loss Fulham in the third round at Craven Cottage.

The Canaries were beaten by the Premier League club, with Carlos Vinicius and Alex Iwobi scoring for the hosts.

Borja Sainz came off the bench to pull one back, but Norwich couldn't find an equaliser.

Head coach David Wagner said he's disappointed to exit the Carabao Cup, but praised his team's performance: "If you concede a defeat you are never happy..

"But what we've seen performance-wise from the squad was very good. It's nice to see, even if we've made so many changes and gave some players their debut as well.

"We were able to see how we like to play, how we like to defend. This was good to see. Unfortunately, we didn't score a further goal. Whoever is on the pitch, the cup is there to give every game a go like we did in the two previous rounds.

"Performance-wise, we were back to our level and back to our demands. Nobody likes to concede defeats, but it's all about changing the future."
