  • 18' Against the run of play, Harry Cornick has scored! This game has turned on its head.
  • 23' It looks surprising Coventry City FC does not make any changes. Michael Rose has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.

  • 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
