Fleetwood 2-0 Sky Blues

A young coventry side slumped to a 2-0 defeat to league two side fleetwood at highbury stadium. Joe murphy made a number of very good saves in the first half to deny the league two side taking the lead. Mathiueu Manset had city's best chance as Aaron Phillips and Louis Garner linked up brilliantly down the right hand side before trialist Manset put his shot narrowly wide from 7 yards out. The game went a bit flat in the second half with Garner having city's best chance thrashing a 20 yard shot just past the post. But on 81 minutes the hosts went ahead after a deflected effort from Junior Brown, then 3 minutes later the league two side doubled their lead after Murphy pulled off an outstanding save from Jon Parkin, it was tapped in from three yards to give the league two side the win. A disappointing result but city's young guns showed promise throughout the game and it was certainly encouraging for Steven Pressley and his staff.
