Bruce: Reid's hard work paying off
Reid scored twice on Monday night as the Black Cats moved into the third round at Carrow Road.[LNB]Teemu Tainio set the ball rolling for the Premier League club before Reid netted a well-taken double.[LNB]Wes Hoolahan reduced the deficit just after the hour, only for Owain Tudur Jones to quickly deflect a corner into his own net.[LNB]Reid, who underwent a rigorous fitness regime in the summer to cut down his notoriously excessive weight, was the star of the show and Bruce was quick to praise the Irishman.[LNB]"He's seeing the fruits of that tonight," Bruce told Sky Sports 1.[LNB]"He is the one who has done it, not anyone else.[LNB]"He's lost something like eight or nine kilos which is testament to him, and he's given himself an opportunity.[LNB]Norwich finished with nine men when last man Michael Spillane was sent off for a professional foul on Frazier Campbell, and keeper Ben Alnwick suffered a cut to his face when colliding with the striker.[LNB]But Bruce revealed Campbell suffered no serious damage from the coming together with Alnwick.[LNB]"He's okay, he's got a bad wrist, a bad elbow, a bad shoulder and a sore head but thankfully he's okay," he said.[LNB]"There were some really, really good performances. Reidy has scored two wonder goals, the goalkeeper (Craig Gordon) has produced two or three really good saves.[LNB]"It bears well and has given me a headache.[LNB]"All of them responded magnificently in the last few weeks and with those performances, they have asked me a few questions."[LNB][LNB]
