Coventry City 1-1 Accrington Stanley

  • Published

Michael Doyle grabbed a late equaliser against Accrington to ensure Coventry extended their unbeaten league run six matches.

Offande Zanzala's handed the visitors the lead but Doyle struck in the 87th minute to claim a share of the spoils.

Jordan Clark was Accrington's main threat in a frenetic first-half, linking up well with Billy Kee before hitting the crossbar.

But it was the hosts who shaded the opening 45 minutes, with Jordan Willis and Conor Chaplin perhaps feeling they should have scored.

Willis headed just over before Connor Ripely had to be alert to tip over Chaplin's shot.

They were made to pay for these missed chances when Zanzala worked himself some space in the penalty area before firing past Lee Burge.

Luke Thomas was the home side's main outlet as they chased the game but Ripley produced a superb save to keep out the winger just past the hour-mark.

But Coventry did find an equaliser when Doyle tapped in after Ripley parried Jodi Jones' cross.
