Norwich City defender Ruairi McConville admitted they had not done themselves justice as a team in their 3-0 FA Cup defeat at Leeds United. Premier League Leeds proved too strong at Elland Road and advanced into the sixth round following goals from Sean Longstaff, Gabriel Gudmundsson and Joel Piroe. "We've been playing well and were confident coming into the game, optimistic and excited about the opportunity," McConville said. "It's a missed opportunity - obviously Leeds are a great side and punished us - but it's something we'll look back on and learn from. Norwich return to league action on Wednesday with a home game against Sheffield United (19:45 GMT).
