NORWICH took a leaf out of Manchester City's playbook as they took the lead at Leicester.
David Wagner's play-off chasers stunned the stuttering Foxes with a clever corner routine in the 20th minute, before they went on to lose 3-1 at the King Power Stadium.

Nathan Ake blocked off Alexis Mac Allister at the near post, leaving John Stones free to prod home Kevin De Bruyne's whipped delivery from close range.
On this occasion it was Ben Gibson who manhandled Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall out of the way, with Gabriel Sara pouncing to score for the visitors.
After Stones' goal last month, Gary Neville labelled the routine as "genius".
Guardiola, 53, later deferred the credit to City's set-piece coach Carlos Vicens.
Stones himself said: "Weâve worked hard on it all week. We spotted something yesterday, worked on it, and it came off."
