Fulham boss Marco Silva was happy seeing off Norwich in their Carabao Cup win last night.

The Cottagers won 2-1, with Carlos Vinicius and Alex Iwobi getting the hosts' goals before Borja Sainz set up a nervous finish.

Silva later said: "We had some good moments but we missed many chances to kill the game before and to score more goals.

"Until the moment [Iwobi's goal] we did not take the goal and against this type of team who have enthusiasm in this competition the game was tough and was always open.

"As you know he [Iwobi] is a player I know really well and I was responsible for him to sign for Everton as well. I know what he can do as a player for ourselves in different positions on the pitch. He has qualities, he's dynamic and his energy as well is going to make him an important player for us."
