Norwich City had an easy victory over Cobh Ramblers in front of 814 fans in St Colman’s Park on Wednesday night.
Wes Hoolahan was the main attraction for the majority of the crowd but he was subdued for most of the first half as many other players took a key role in proceedings.
The first half saw the Canaries go four goals up on the Cork side thanks to goals from Alex Tettey, Nelson Oliveira, Mario Vranic and James Maddison. The second half was a tamer affair with the highlight being Alex Pritchard’s superb goal from distance.
The game's opening goal arrived on six minutes when a Vranic corner ended up in the six-yard box with Tettey finishing to the net.
Ramblers were struggling to get into the game and they conceded two goals in three minutes to put the game beyond doubt. Firstly Oliveira curled a superb shot into the bottom corner from outside the box and then, on 28 minutes, a shot was deflected falling into the path of Vranic who finished from close range.
The pick of the goals arrived on 34 minutes when Maddison's superb free-kick from outside the box struck the bar before it rebounded off Michael Sadys’ back into the goal.
The second half saw Norwich dominate proceedings and with eight minutes remaining, substitute Pritchard fired a right footed shot into the top corner from 20 yards.
Cobh next game will be against Cabinteely in Stradbrook this Friday night in the SSE Airtricity First Division whilst Norwich City will face Lowestoft Town on Saturday.
