    U.S. international Josh Sargent scored Norwich's second goal of the match, a 20th-minute strike, as the Canaries defeated Hull City 4-0 Saturday.

    Sargent later missed a penalty for the Canaries, with his 56th minute attempt hitting the post from the spot.

    Despite the miss, though, the Canaries added two more to their tally late in the second half to secure the victory, walking away with the clean sheet.

    The 24-year-old's first half goal made it three-straight matches for the Canaries with a goal-contribution, and seven total in Sargent's nine appearances for Norwich this season.

    WHAT NEXT FOR SARGENT?

    Sargent will depart England in the coming days, returning to the United States for the October training camp with the USMNT. The forward will look to earn his first minutes under head coach Mauricio Pochettino, who takes the touchline for the first time on Oct. 12 against Panama, followed by a clash with Mexico on Oct. 15.
