Our under-21’s won 3-0 against Coventry City in their first-ever Checkatrade Trophy clash on Wednesday night.
WHAT HAPPENED
Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah and Joe Willock all found the net as Freddie Ljungberg – 20 years to the day since he signed for the club himself – presided over an impressive 3-0 victory at the Ricoh Arena.
It would take us just four minutes to break the deadlock, thanks to a fine finish from Smith Rowe inside the box.
Our playmaker stifled Coventry’s build-up play and won the ball high up the pitch, before receiving the ball once more on the right wing and finding the back of the net with a low, right-footed strike.
