Middlesbrough left it late to claim a dramatic 4-3 win over Norwich at the Riverside - but how did each player fare for Kim Hellberg’s side?
After falling behind to Mohamed Toure’s first-minute strike, Boro went 2-1 ahead inside seven minutes following goals from Sebastian Berhalter and Amario Cozier-Duberry.
Berhalter added a second before half time, but Norwich drew level after the interval courtesy of goals from substitutes Jovon Makama and Jacob Wright.
Yet there was still time for Boro substitute Ashley Phillips to score a stoppage-time winner. Here’s how each Boro player fared:
1. Radek Vitek - 6
Produced an important save to deny Andre Brooks in the first half shortly after Boro took the lead. Couldn’t do much about the first two Norwich goals. Made a save with his leg before the visitors’ third as the ball stayed alive in Boro’s box. 6 | Getty Images
2. Callum Brittain - 6
Had a few nervy moments at the back and was perhaps fortunate not to concede a penalty when he collided with Toure in the box in the first half. Supported Cozier-Duberry well down the right when Boro were on top. 6
3. Adilson Malanda - 6
Looked assured after Boro took control of the match but lost Makama for Norwich’s second goal which rocked the side’s backline. 6 | George Wood/Getty Images

4. Alfie Jones - 5
Struggled early on against Norwich’s powerful forward line as Boro pressed high and left space in behind. Settled as the half wore on but was still replaced at half time. 5 | Getty Images
