Teemu Pukki has admitted he stole the ball to secure his third goal in Norwich's 3-1 win over Newcastle United.

The Finn was desperate to nab his first hat-trick for the Canaries, and did so by 'stealing' the ball off teammate Todd Cantwell.

"My first hat-trick in a Norwich shirt, so really happy about that, and three points, that's why we came here today," the 29-year-old striker said after the game.

"It was a great game for us, we totally deserved to win this game, so obviously really happy about it.

"Last season there were many times when I scored a couple of goals and I could never do the third one.

"So that's something I've been trying to do and I think I stole the ball from Todd [Cantwell], I'm not even sure I tried to pass, I just wanted the third one."
