Overview

• Brandon Thomas-Asante opened the scoring before a Bright Osayi-Samuel own goal and Victor Torp's late finish sealed Coventry's win at the CBS Arena.
• Birmingham finished with 10 men after Robinson's second yellow just before half-time and failed to register a shot on target.
• Coventry were without Jack Rudoni and Ephron Mason-Clark, with Thomas-Asante deputising on the left and Josh Eccles making his first start since March and helping create the second goal.
• Frank Lampard hailed an "outstanding" display, while Chris Davies called Robinson's bookings harsh and criticised unpunished time-wasting by Coventry.
• Attendance was 30,585, and Birmingham now face selection issues with Robinson suspended and Ethan Laird forced off injured after Marvin Ducksch pulled out in the warm-up.
