The Canaries goal machine netted for his country in Euro qualifying from the penalty spot.
A number of Norwich City fans have taken to Twitter to praise their prolific goal machine Teemu Pukki for his winner in Finland’s 1-0 triumph over Greece in Euro 2020 qualifying.
In a game of few chances, the Canaries forward coolly converted a penalty in the 52nd minute of the Group J game in Tampere, sending the Greek goalkeeper the wrong way.
As reported by the Pink Un, Pukki was one of the players who missed six of seven penalties for Norwich during last season, making his successful spot kick for Finland all the sweeter going forward.
The striker now has 42 goals in 61 games for club and country since he joined Carrow Road on a free transfer from Danish club Brondby in the summer of 2018, of which 23 came in 30 games this calendar year, and five in four Premier League games.
Norwich’s Twitter page proudly commented on their marksman’s exploits in meme form and some Canaries fans joined in the rejoicing:
Finland are second in Group J with 12 points from five games, five clear of third-placed Bosnia-Herzegovina, with the top two teams in each group qualifying automatically for next summer’s finals.
