Norwich City thrashed Championship side Bournemouth to reach the third round of the Carabao Cup.

The Canaries claimed a 6-0 victory to boost their confidence after losing their opening two Premier League matches of the season.

Debutante Christos Tzolis opened the scoring at Carrow Road after 12 minutes.

From there, the Canaries were impossible to stop as Kenny McLean and Lukas Rupp made it 3-0 before half-time.

Summer signing Josh Sargent scored a second-half brace on his full debut, while Tzolis double his tally.

"It is important that you deliver a good performance, but we also have to be a bit careful," Canaries boss Daniel Farke said.

"This was a game on Championship level, top Championship level, and it proves that if we played there then we would probably romp the league again.

"But the Premier League is a different animal and I have to make sure I don't throw some lads too early into the cold water."
