Jonathan Rowe’s absence, due to ongoing transfer interest, loomed large over the squad as they hit the pitch at Kassam Stadium. The match saw Oxford's Mark Harris and Cameron Brannagan score, disrupting the Canaries’ dreams of a triumphant start to the Championship season. The buzzing atmosphere in the ground contrasted sharply with the spirits of the travelling Norwich supporters.

In the aftermath, fans took to social media to express their disappointment, with many creating reaction videos that showcased their gut-wrenching emotions.
