An own goal by Ghana-born Alexander Tettey gifted Middlesbrough a crucial 1-0 win against Norwich as Albert Adomah's Middlesbrough returned to the top of the English Championship over the weekend.
After damaging back-to-back away defeats to fellow promotion hopefuls Bournemouth and Watford, Boro boss Aitor Karanka said before the game that defeat at Carrow Road would have spelt the end of their top-two hopes - but they are now on course to end their six-year hiatus from the English Premier League.
With Middlesbrough now top of the table it is hard to describe this 1-0 victory as an upset - but Norwich had won 12 in 15 games and came into the clash on a five-match winning streak.
Karanka's side had the better of the first half and took the lead in the eighth minute as a vital touch from Tettey sent Grant Leadbitter's corner into his own net.
Although Alex Neil saw the hosts dominate play after the interval, they still could not create a clear-cut chance and it was Middlesbrough who came closest to adding to their lead.
The first chance of the evening fell to Jelle Vossen as Patrick Bamford flicked on Albert Adomah's cross, but the Belgian could only angle a shot over John Ruddy's crossbar.
