Mansfield 2-3 Sky Blues

Coventry city came back from a goal down on two occasions to beat league two new boys mansfield 3-2 at field mill. Calvin Andrew gave mansfield the lead midway through the first half before Carl baker equalisied from the penalty spot with 9 minutes of the first half to go after Callum Wilson was bought down by the stags keeper Alan Marriott. Then in the second half Sam Clucas scored a delightful goal to restore the newly promoted sides lead.  It was Callum wilson that was the catalyst for the second equaliser, using his pace to bomb down the right and cross the ball into the box where the centre back bundled the ball into is own net. There was time for more drama in the last minute, yet again it was wilson that was bought down in the box, skipper carl baker stepped up and dispatched the penalty to give the sky blues a battling win.
