Norman conquest

SUPERSUB CAM AT THE DOUBLE IN ROVERS WN

- 

SUBSTITUTE Cameron Norman's spectacular brace secured Tranmere a 2-0 win at struggling Harrogate.

Norman, who was only introduced in the 70th minute due to an injury to fellow defender Jordan Turnbull, fired in from 25 yards three minutes after coming on and settled the outcome with a stoppage-time free-kick.

His brace condemned Harrogate to a 14th game without a victory and a seventh consecutive home defeat - the last six without scoring.

Tranmere had gone closest to opening the first-half scoring, with home goalkeeper James Belshaw fumbling Ethan Bristow’s left-wing cross onto his own crossbar before eventually gathering.

Turnbull was flagged offside for tapping in on the goal-line as Kristian Dennis's near-post header from Richie Smallwood’s corner was destined to ripple the net.
