Sunderland fell to a disappointing defeat to the Sky Blues on Saturday afternoon. Here's how Andy rated the Lads!

Defended well down the right and showed composure on the ball when under pressure, particularly with a calm header back to Patterson late on. Worked hard off the ball, and was a nuisance for Coventry’s defenders but barely featured on the ball. Forced a good save from Ben Wilson at the near post after good interplay with Roberts and also ran onto a O’Nien pass to fire in a cross that gave us half a penalty shout and Roberts’ chance. Had a good chance to equalise at 1-1 but fired wide from close range. Dan Neil: 5/10 Had a really good opportunity but couldn’t make proper contact on a cross from Edouard Michut.

Coventry City player ratings from CoventryLive after the Sky Blues beat Sunderland 2-1 at the CBS Arena.

Continued to harry and chase as the opposition pushed in a difficult second half. Finally got his goal when he slid in between two defenders from a Godden pass following a brilliant four-man move to kill the game. Set up Allen for his goal with a lovely pull-back and almost made it 2-0 minutes later when he drifted past Batth and hit and angled shot that shaved the far post. Lively from the start, nicking possession and driving forward to look for openings and got involved in an early spat in a feisty affair and picked up a yellow card for a tackle on Patrick Roberts. Played a brilliant diagonal pass to Godden to set up the second goal. Made a terrific tackle on Clarke in the box as the wide man threatened to cut in on goal and made two solid challenges in the middle of the park to win possession before slipping a lovely ball to play in Gyokeres to set up Allen for the first goal. Introduced himself to Gelhardt in the first minute and organised the back three to good effect as Sunderland made a bright star. Made a decent interception and raced upfield on the counter in the second half but his final ball was help by the keeper. Pressed well to get a foot in well and played a key role in midfield. Defended well when he needed to and grew in confidence after the break and had a hand in the second goal. A real presence in the box where he headed everything that came his way. Saved well at his near post to deny Roberts just before the break in an otherwise quiet first half.

Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray gave his verdict on a feisty game against his former club Coventry City at the CBS Arena.

But they give as good as they get and although they aren’t the biggest side in the division they are really strong who will put their bodies in to roll you out of the way to try to create space for themselves. “I’ve got no issues with it, it looked like a game from the 80s where you’re allowed to kick people and tackle them and jump on top of them, seemed to be you get away with whatever you wanted and he was going to play on today. “It was just a different game because they glide.

[Coventry](https://www.coventrytelegraph.net/all-about/coventry) probably grasped that the referee left his whistle at home today a bit quicker than we did and they became quite physical, as I said at half time when you’re in a fight sometimes you have to throw some punches because if the ref wasn’t going to help the team then you have to accept that.
