FT: Sheff Utd 1-2 Coventry
Carl Asaba
Former Sheffield United striker on BBC Radio Sheffield
I've got a similar feeling to as I did when we played down there where I thought we deserved something from that game. Again tonight I thought we were the better team, but you can't defend like that in this division.

This team just continues to deliver. I mean, this is probably one of the hardest places to come to get a result.
They didn't have it all their own way today. They may have got fortunate a couple of times for some penalty shouts Sheffield United had, but make no mistake, it was a brilliant performance from Coventry in the end because they've got the three points.
They've battled, they fought, they went behind just after half-time and then found a way to get back in the game. And then when they went in front, that knocked the stuffing out of Sheffield United and they looked less dangerous in that the last period of the game than they did in the whole of the first two thirds of the pitch.
So, brilliant effort from Coventry, those three points are like gold dust.

On this crisp clear night, Sheffield United had the lead over Coventry City and in the blink of an eye they fell 2-1 down.

Coventry may have got away with another one. Definitely the first one, but I'll have to take another look.

So another penalty call for Sheffield United. Chris Wilder's gone down to a little monitor in the dugout to check to see what he thinks.
Campbell was played through, he's a little to the left of the field, drives into the penalty area, cuts past Thomas. Tyrese Campbell is hauled to his feet.

Carl Asaba
Former Sheffield United striker on BBC Radio Sheffield
I just it's so frustrating that the boys are playing so well.
We've played a lot worse and won matches this season. They're doing so well in this match and we're trailing.

Sheff Utd 1-2 Coventry
Brandon Thomas-Asante has been brought on for Coventry City, replacing Ephron Mason-Clark. This could add some energy to the Sky Blues' attack.
Jack Rudoni had gone 21 games without a goal but now has two in two for Coventry City
Coventry City once again showed their mettle to come from behind and beat Sheffield United to move five points clear at the top of the Championship.
City's quest to end a 25-year exile from the top flight looked under threat when Harrison Burrows slammed the Blades into a deserved lead at the start of the second half.
But Frank Lampard's side showed a clinical touch to score with their first two shots on target and take the lead within nine minutes of falling behind.
Haji Wright found space to hammer through Blades goalkeeper Michael Cooper and Jack Rudoni then flicked in a fine header in front of 3,000 travelling fans.
Defeat leaves Chris Wilder's side nine points shy of the play-off places and possibly ends their hopes of an unlikely promotion push.
It is only eight seasons since Coventry found themselves in League Two but they are edging closer to a Premier League return after a potentially pivotal week.
Tough-looking games against second-placed Middlesbrough, West Brom and Sheffield United have brought a maximum haul of nine points which could be worth more than their weight in gold.
They were made to show resilience in a first half which was bossed by the hosts with Andre Brooks a particularly lively threat down the United right.
Wilder's side rained in 15 shots in the first 45 minutes with Patrick Bamford fluffing their best chance producing a tame shot at Carl Rushworth.
Burrows, who scored against relegated rivals Wednesday at the weekend, did find a way through at the start of the second half after collecting a sublime reverse pass from former Coventry midfielder Gus Hamer.
That awoke City though and Wright managed to equalise with a powerful shot that Cooper should have dealt with.
And just five minutes later Rudoni timed his run to perfection to meet an inswinging cross from Ephron Mason-Clark with a telling header.
United substitute Tyrese Campbell had the home crowd on their feet in the last few minutes when he tumbled under a challenge from Bobby Thomas - but the striker was booked for a dive instead of winning a penalty.
The Sky Blues now host Stoke on Saturday while United must regroup at QPR.
Lampard post Sheffield United win
Coventry manager Frank Lampard told BBC Coventry & Warwickshire:
"It was always going to be tough, they are a good team on the rise. We had to defend our box in the first half, we weren't at our best and we made blocks. The character to come from behind and score two good goals is all credit to the boys.
"There was a lot of pressure, the crowd get involved, we needed personality and that was first class.
"It was textbook Rudoni to arrive and score, he is a top player who is so hungry to do well and produce.
"We have let teams have moments against us away from home this season but we were compact and it's unseen things that get you results on the road.
"The boys have worked hard to get these three wins - but there is so much still to play for."
Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder told BBC Radio Sheffield:
"It was a really good performance for large parts but the naivety for the two goals was incredible. We should be up at half-time, the tone and feel of the stadium was really good and we had them on the back foot.
"We went toe-to-toe and got ahead but the manner of the goals we conceded was so naive. We were wide open for the first and then we turn our back on the second one.
"The game turned on its head. We had to be smart and manage the game and we didn't do that.
"I feel for the players, but it's just happened too many times this season. We have nearly been good enough against good teams."
