Ghana midfielder Amankwah Forson
Ghana midfielder Amankwah Forson marked his return to Norwich City’s starting XI in spectacular fashion, capping a lively performance with a stunning curled strike in their victory over Queens Park Rangers at Carrow Road on Saturday November 29, 2025.
The 22-year-old, making his first start since returning from injury earlier this month, delivered a confident and complete midfield display, highlighted by his brilliantly taken goal late in the first half.
Norwich had opened the scoring inside nine minutes through Danish midfielder Emiliano Marcondes, but their lead was short-lived as Jamaican forward Rumarn Burrell levelled for QPR just two minutes later.
The Canaries regained their advantage in the 33rd minute when Senegalese defender Amadou Salif Mbengue inadvertently turned the ball into his own net under pressure.
With Norwich in control, Forson produced the moment of the match – curling home confidently after being teed up by USA international Joshua Sargent moments before the interval.
His intelligent movement, energy and crisp passing impressed the home supporters, and he received a warm ovation when he was substituted in the 66th minute for teenage midfielder Errol Mundle-Smith.
Ghanaian winger Kwame Poku remained on the bench throughout the match for QPR.
Forson’s display will delight both Norwich and Ghana, who will be encouraged by his sharpness and confidence ahead of upcoming national team engagements.
