Norwich City's hopes of promotion to the Premier League were dashed on Tuesday night as they lost 3-2 on aggregate to Blackburn Rovers in the Championship play-off semi-finals.

Despite winning the second leg 2-1 at Carrow Road, Norwich were unable to overturn the 2-0 deficit they had suffered in the first leg at Ewood Park.

Goals from Teemu Pukki and Josh Sargent gave Norwich a glimmer of hope, but Rovers held on to secure their place in the final at Wembley.

The defeat is a major blow to Norwich, who had been one of the favorites to win promotion this season.
