I dare say my friends that work in Coventry will hand out a bit of stick on Tuesday when I see them but they said it earlier in the season - "we dominate teams, create loads of chances, then pass it to the keeper or hit some kid stood behind the goal".
Coventry's season was distilled down into 90+mins on Saturday.
Town on the other hand had far fewer shots but a far higher %age on target and the penalty (never understand this) isn't a counted as a shot on target.
We had to defend for long periods but we did it well, well enough that the only shot that eventually got passed the excellent (again) Nicholls took 90' to do so. When we broke we did it at speed and with some good passing moves. As always, LOB ran his socks off, The General organised things between midfield and the back, Rhodes was unlucky not to score. Holmes popped up all over the place, Russell had another pretty solid game as did Scott High. The few errors that were made were mopped up with some excellent defending across the back line.
As Snoots hasn't posted it yet, you can make your own mind up about Toffo's goal.
(Spotted myself on one of the replays)
Thought Wilson was nearer to saving both goals than it actually turned out.
No apologies for the extended version
Not sure where the decision came from for Tino to take the penalty but it was nicely tucked in the corner and he was a tad more effective generally than as of late.
PS - It's a bloody long hike from that ground back to the station.
