Here's how Middlesbrough's players rated in the 2-1 win at Norwich:

9 Zack Steffen: Brilliant response to his World Cup disappointment. What character. Superb save to deny Pukki early on, solid throughout.

7 Tommy Smith: Rock solid. Didn’t panic when Norwich were on top. Assured second half.

7 Dael Fry: Recovered from a testing start to once again impress. Excellent in the second half.

7 Darragh Lenihan: See Fry. The pair are playing superbly together.

8 Ryan Giles: Yet again caused no end of problems with his deliveries. Brilliant down the left.

7 Isaiah Jones: Final ball let him down at times but a real threat in second half

8 Hayden Hackney: Rose to the occasion in his toughest test so far. So calm on the ball, always looking forward. Influential in second half.

8 Jonny Howson: 600th professional appearance and on this showing plenty more still to come. Got a grip of the game as Boro improved. Excellent in second period.

8 Riley McGree: Bit lost early on but recovered superbly. Linked up well with Giles and scored stunning equaliser.
