Outstanding performance
Coventry City•MidfielderCoventry City delivered a dominant first-half performance to overwhelm Swansea City 3-0 at the Swansea.com Stadium. The Sky Blues took control early through Brandon Thomas-Asante's penalty after Ben Cabango fouled Ephron Mason-Clark in the box, before Matt Grimes struck a sublime left-footed effort from outside the area to double the advantage. Tatsuhiro Sakamoto then wrapped up the victory just before the break with a well-taken finish from a corner. The contest was effectively settled in those crucial 13 first-half minutes, with Swansea unable to mount any meaningful response despite multiple second-half substitutions as Mark Robins' side continued their impressive Championship form.
