Coventry maintain perfect home start with win over AFC Wimbledon
Posted Wednesday, September 18, 2019 by PA
Coventry perfect home start to the season continued as they scored late on to beat AFC Wimbledon 2-1.
Wimbledon started brightly and were rewarded when Liam Walsh fouled Michael Folivi in the box after Coventry were caught short playing out from the back. Marcus Forss stepped up to cooly put Wimbledon ahead after eight minutes from the resulting penalty.
Coventry equalised after 28 minutes through Jordy Hiwula. A superb defence-splitting pass from Jordan Shipley put Hiwula one on one with Nathan Trott and he rounded the keeper and finished for his fourth goal of the season.
Coventry had the majority of the ball in the second half but they failed to make it count until late on when Bristol City loanee Liam Walsh finally put the home side ahead deep into injury time.
The midfielder drilled a shot past Trott in the 93rd minute after a smart one-two with Shipley again the provider.
The win means Coventry remain top of League One, their 100 per cent home record still intact.
