Everyone at Coventry still believes - Dasilva

Full-back Jay Dasilva says Coventry City are still confident they can win promotion but admits the Sky Blues "weren't at our best" in Tuesday's defeat by Norwich City at Carrow Road.

Despite taking the lead through Romain Esse, the Sky Blues faltered after half-time, conceding twice in the second half as Ali Ahmed's winner extended Coventry's troubles on the road to six games without a win.

"Very disappointing," Dasilva told BBC CWR. "We knew we weren't at our best. You're not going to play great every game but it should've clicked when we went that goal ahead.

"When you concede so early [after half-time] it's never great and we just never got going. It just felt a bit flat."

The defeat cut Coventry's lead at the top of the Championship to just three points as they prepare for another away trip - to Queens Park Rangers on Saturday [15:00 GMT].

Despite seeing their cushion at the top shrink, Coventry still have an eight-point gap to Ipswich Town in third place - although the Tractor Boys have a game in hand.

And Dasilva is staying positive over their chances of going up.

"For sure, everyone still believes," he said. "We're still confident. We're top of the league. We focus on ourselves and get back to all the good things we've been doing.

"It's a reminder nothing comes easy. Every game's so hard and we have to fight for it. It's down to us to make it right in the next game."
