The national newspapers’ views on Norwich City’s 0-0 draw at home to Southampton.

Sunday Mirror: “Artur Boruc was transformed from hate figure to hero as Southampton secured a vital point towards Premier League salvation.”

The Mail on Sunday: “Southampton manager Mauricio Pochettino could face a touchline ban after confronting referee Mark Clattenburg on the pitch at the end of the game.”

The Observer: “Norwich might have considered themselves lucky not to be trailing such was Southampton’s forward thrust in treacherous conditions.”

The Sunday Telegraph: “It was a controversial decision to give Norwich a penalty in the closing seconds, but Artur Boric ensured justice was done . . . and brilliantly denied Holt.”

The Independent: “Goalless draws are not exactly rare at Carrow Road – this was the fourth this season – but this one was achieved only after Boruc pulled off a superb save.”
