Ashton wins it for Norwich

Norwich City 2 Newcastle United 1

Substitute Patrick Kluivert looked to have denied the hosts when his last-minute goal cancelled out a stunning 35-yard strike from Youssef Safri midway through the second half.

However, Norwich who remain bottom of the table, but now two points behind 17th-placed West Brom threw everything forward and Ashton headed in Thomas Helveg's cross to condemn Newcastle to a fourth straight defeat.
