Daniel Farke left bemused by manner of Norwich’s defeat to West Ham

THE most surprising thing about this game was that West Ham only won by two goals, though the Norwich manager took a somewhat different view.

Haller then got away to put West Ham in front, with Zimmerman unable able to get back due to injury.
