Coventry spent the remainder of the contest making life difficult for the home side. Summer addition Taiwo Awoniyi fluffed his chance of a one-on-one with Gianluigi Donnarumma, steering wide, while the City goalkeeper also made huge saves to rebuff Jack Rudoni’s header at the back post and Ellis Simms late on.
