Plymouth Argyle capitulate in embarrassing Norwich City rout.
Wayne Rooney’s Pilgrims were hammered 6-1 in the one-sided Championship match at Carrow Road.
Plymouth Argyle suffered a humiliating 6-1 defeat by Norwich City at Carrow Road after a totally inept defensive display.
Even by the low standards the Pilgrims have set on their travels in the Championship this season, which has seen them heavily beaten at Sheffield Wednesday, Cardiff City and Leeds United, this was an absolute shocker from Wayne Rooney’s side.
Borja Sainz, the Championship’s top scorer, netted twice for Norwich in the opening 17 minutes but despite dominating the first half the home side only took a 2-1 lead into the break after Mustapha Bundu replied for the Pilgrims with a fine 39th minute finish.
However, the Canaries were much more clinical in the second period as they added four more goals from Shane Duffy, Saiz – to complete his hat-trick, Anis Slimane and Ante Crnac as the Pilgrims were torn apart, and far too easily.
