Half-Time Report: Deadlock remains between Norwich City, Swansea City

Norwich City and Swansea City remain level following a goalless first 45 minutes at Carrow Road in the Premier League.

Swansea City and Norwich City have both failed to break the deadlock in a goalless first half in their Premier League match at Carrow Road.

The visitors almost had an early lead when Bafetimbi Gomis unleashed a long-range strike, despite having failed to score in his last eight outings, but the shot was well wide.

Swansea started to come under pressure at the back though as Norwich saw more of the ball, but Cameron Jerome headed over from a Robbie Brady free kick, while a 25-yard drive from Jonny Howson was straight at Lukasz Fabianski.

Neil Taylor made a blistering down forward for the visitors just after the half-hour mark, but Gomis could only fire wide from the resulting cross.

The visitors wanted a penalty just before half time when Gomis felt that he was pulled back by Sebastien Bassong, but the referee did not believe there was enough contact, leaving the sides to head into the interval level.
