Watford 0-1 Coventry United: Mollie Green scores sensational injury time free-kick to see Jay Bradford's side complete two great escapes in the same season

Coventry United may be the first team ever to complete two great escapes in the same season. They had to beat Watford on the final day to stay in the Championship and send the Hornets down. For 96 minutes, it looked out of their reach. Then up stepped Mollie Green to fire a sensational 30-yard free-kick into the top corner in the seventh minute of injury time.

It has been a remarkable five months for a club that was eight minutes from being liquidated in January. Two days before Christmas, players and staff were told over a Zoom call they would no longer have jobs or be paid for December.
