Paul Lambert reveals that he was pleased with the way his Norwich City side acquitted themselves during their 1-0 loss to Newcastle United.

Norwich City manager Paul Lambert has admitted that he was "disappointed" by his side's 1-0 loss at Newcastle United earlier today.

However, the boss has stressed that he is was happy with the way his team performed at the Sports Direct Arena.

"The performance was excellent, we had chances to score and I think we had a lot of the ball," Lambert told Sky Sports News. "Coming here is a tough place to play, we switched off for the goal and have to defend better.

"We came to a team doing very well with a vibrant crowd and did really well. I thought we had a lot of the ball, passed it really well and looked great at times.

"I'm disappointed to lose but I'm not disappointed with the performance."

The Canaries remain 13th in the Premier League table as a result of this afternoon's defeat.
