NORWICH, England -- Norwich inflicted Manchester Uniteds third loss in the English Premier League on Saturday, winning 1-0 to ensure that Alex Fergusons side was overtaken atop the standings by Manchester City. NFL Jerseys For Sale . Former United youth team player Anthony Pilkington headed in Wes Hoolahans cross on the hour at Carrow Road. "Its a great day for Norwich and its a massive win for us," Pilkington said. "Weve been performing well over the last couple of weeks and we showed today that we could beat the team that is probably the best in the league." United fell one point behind champion City, which routed Aston Villa 5-0 earlier in the day, while Norwich moved five points clear of the drop zone. "Were disappointed to lose the game but we have to give credit to Norwich for the way they fought and battled for every ball on the pitch," Ferguson said. "They defended fantastically well and the goalkeeper also had a really good night so its disappointing ... they deserved the win just because they worked so hard for it. "The players are used to making comebacks and were always a threat in the last minutes of matches. We had a lot of half-chances but it just wasnt our night." Without striker Wayne Rooney because of tonsillitis, the Red Devils produced a largely lacklustre display as Norwich produced another composed effort to secure a third win in five EPL games. But it was a lively start by United as Robin van Persie created the first opening inside three minutes, turning to drive in a low shot from the edge of the Norwich penalty area which goalkeeper John Ruddy palmed away low to his right. United continued to have all the possession, and enjoyed plenty of time on the ball as the home side sat deep. Norwich, though, showed some life in attack when Hoolahan floated a ball over from the left, which winger Robert Snodgrass diverted just over the angle with a backward header. A sweeping move switched play from the right out to Pilkington, who then released left back Javier Garrido, and his low centre flashed across the face of Anders Lindegaards goal. Norwich grew in confidence and it needed a saving tackle from Chris Smalling to prevent captain Grant Holt from tapping in Snodgrass low cross after the Scotland winger got past Rio Ferdinand into the right side of the United penalty area. Then, Ryan Giggs, who scored a last-minute winner here last season, floated in a fine ball behind the Norwich backline, but Van Persie missed his kick when attempting an acrobatic volley. At the end of the first half, Young drilled in a low effort at the back post from a corner, which Ruddy turned behind from point-blank range. After the break, Norwich was on top and was rewarded on the hour with a goal of real quality. Garrido was played in on the overlap down the left by Hoolahan, and his perfectly weighed cross was glanced over Lindegaard into the top corner by Pilkington. Ferguson had seen enough and within 10 minutes veteran midfielder Paul Scholes, who turned 38 on Friday, and England striker Danny Welbeck were off the bench, replacing Antonio Valencia and the ineffective Javier Hernandez. It didnt make a difference as Norwich claimed another big win this season, having beaten Arsenal a month ago.

You just try to catch the ball.EDMONTON -- Jon Cornish has broken a record that stood for more than half of the CFLs 100-year history. The Calgary Stampeders running back set a new single-season rushing record by a Canadian in a 30-27 win over the Edmonton Eskimos on Friday, a record that was 56 years old. A 22-yard carry by Cornish in the third quarter helped him surpass Normie Kwong, who set the mark of 1,437 yards in 1956. Cornish entered the game needing just 50 yards to surpass Kwongs mark. He ended up with 14 carries for 69 yards, finishing the regular season with 1,457 yards. In his four games against Edmonton this season, he accounted for more than 500 of those yards. The New Westminster, B.C., native was thrilled to get his name in the record books. "It is a wonderful accomplishment for not only me, but the whole offence," Cornish said. "Any time you get a single player getting rushing yards it is contingent on the offensive line and blocking from receivers. "Im not going to lie, it feels quite wonderful. Its a record that stood the test of time. Normie Kwong has been the top of thhe tops of Canadian running backs for a long time and to be mentioned at the same time as him is an honour.

"I feel something like this is an indication there has been a return of the Canadian running back," he said. "There was a long period of time where there wasnt really any and all of a sudden you have guys like Jerome Messam, Andrew Harris and myself. Im hoping this is an inspiration for other Canadian running backs to see that they can play at this level." Cornish, the leagues rushing leader, is also trying to become the first Canadian to win the rushing title since Orville Lee in 1988. The 27-year-old has spent his entire six-year CFL career with Calgary. Cornishs record wasnt the only one recorded Friday. Eskimos linebacker J.C. Sherritt made his 11th tackle of the game with 39 seconds left to set a new league record for all-time single season tackles, surpassing Calvin Tiggles previous mark of 129 in 1994. ' ' '
