Mohamed Touré scored a hat-trick on his full debut for Norwich City, as the Canaries were 3-0 winners away to Oxford United in the Sky Bet Championship.

There were first starts for Sam Field and Touré, having made their debuts from the bench in the win over Blackburn Rovers. Dan Grimshaw, Oscar Schwartau and Liam Gibbs also came in to Philippe Clement's line-up, with Paris Maghoma named amongst the substitutes.

The Canaries were ahead inside the opening minute. Touré got on the end of Grimshaw's long ball forward, touched the ball beyond Oxford's goalkeeper and finished into an empty net.

Touré added his, and Norwich's second, just before the 20-minute mark. Ben Chrisene's ball across goal was perfect for the Australian international to score.

After a half-chance for Myles Peart-Harris at the start of the second half, Norwich added a third two minutes into the second half. Touré intercepted a loose pass, surged forward and fired beyond Jamie Cumming for his hat-trick.

Maghoma would be introduced for his Canaries debut on the hour mark, replacing Anis Ben Slimane.

Grimshaw was called into action, saving comfortably from Stanley Mills' long-range effort.

Oxford did register a few half-chances late into the second half, but Norwich would finish as comfortable winners at the Kassam Stadium.

The Canaries are in Emirates FA Cup action this weekend, hosting West Bromwich Albion at Carrow Road in the fourth round of the competition.
