Canaries hang on to beat Bolton

Paul Lambert's Norwich clung onto their hard-earned half-time advantage to
record their first top-flight away win in 17 years at the Reebok Stadium.

Quickfire strikes from Anthony Pilkington and Bradley Johnson at the end of the
first period gave the Canaries the lead before Ivan Klasnic was sent off for
violent conduct.

But 10-man Bolton were handed a lifeline on 63 minutes with a penalty converted
by Martin Petrov before David Ngog's injury-time header was brilliantly saved by
John Ruddy.
