Huddersfield 2-1 Coventry
Akpom 59
Wells 62
Wells 74
After just 15 minutes of the game, our goalkeeper Ryan Allsop was sent off, despite replays showing he clearly got the ball and nothing but the ball. Defensive midfield Jack Finch went in goal and pulled off a decent save with his legs at the first shot against him. Akpom opened the scoring, curling in off the post but Wells ran clear of the defence and Finch had no chance to save it. Finch was then chipped by Wells to give Huddersfield the victory.
Europa League Last 16 Leg 1
Coventry 0-0 Roma
We played a solid game in this match, trying to keep the game at our pace but more importantly keeping Roma at bay. We went into this game with the aim of keeping a clean sheet, and we did that. Fleck found himself in space a couple of times but wasted his chances.
Match 35
Coventry 2-1 Wolves
Sigurdson 62
Maddison 64
Miller 90
Sigurdson gave Wolves the lead in this tie, smashing in after Burge gave the ball straight back to Wolves after making a save. Maddison equalised, knocking in after a brilliant passing move allowed him to find space. Miller won it with the last attack of the game, rising higher than his marker to head home a cross.

Strootman 11
Dzyuba 29
Pjanic 50
Maguire 86
Our European dream ended at the Stadio Olimpico, Strootman smashing into the top corner after finding space. Dzyuba made it 2-0 with a stunning effort, breaking past O'Brien and smashing into the top corner when found in space 30 yards out. Pjanic made it 3, capitalising on bad clearance by Allsop to smash into the top corner from 30 yards. Maguire headed into the top corner to pull one back from a corner, giving us the slim hope of a comeback.

Rantie 61
Daniels 66 (PEN)
Akpom 69
Thomas 89
Gosling opened the scoring in this thrilling match, shrugging off the defender before smashing in. Rantie then headed in to give them a 2 goal lead and when Haynes made a bad tackle in the box, Daniels stepped up to convert the resultant penalty. Akpom stabbed in with his left boot to pull one back and Thomas smashed into the top corner late on but it was too little, too late.
Match 37
Coventry 2-1 Watford
Agard 48
Gomes 56 (OG)
Fabbrini 79
Agard opened the scoring, flicking the ball past the defender and stabbing under the goalkeeper. The second goal came about when Nouble went past the keeper and shot goal-wards from a tight angle. Gomes dived to try and prevent the goal and ended up palming it into his own net. Fabbrini got one back for Watford, sliding in under the keeper.
