Norwich City Vs. Stoke City: Halftime, Canaries Lead On Richie De Laet Goal

They have 45 minutes left to play against Stoke City, but it looks like Norwich City is getting off to a great start in their first season back in the Premier League for quite some time. They earned a solid road point last week against Wigan Athletic and they're halfway to three points at the moment, thanks to a headed goal on a set piece by Richie De Laet.

The Belgain defender, on loan from Manchester United, is finally getting his first crack at regular play in the English Premier League, and he's making the most of it so far. The goal was assisted by Bradley Johnson, who put the cross onto his head. Norwich don't look the part of a recently promoted side so far, though it must be taken into account that almost every team at this level looks better than Stoke, but only about half of them actually are better.
