Norwich City were relegated from the Premier League this afternoon, following defeat at Aston Villa.
The Canaries' fate was sealed by a victory for rivals Burnley, who came from behind to beat Watford - also relegation candidates.
Ollie Watkins put Villa ahead in the first half, capitalising on a slip from City's Brandon Williams.
Williams' error summed up Norwich's season, as did the lack of threat in front of goal.
Danny Ings added a late goal in stoppage time to add to Norwich's misery.
