LAST TIME OUT
City suffered a 2-0 defeat last Friday against Coventry City.
The young Bluebirds found themselves behind with only three minutes played. Victor Madu rose highest to head past the on-rushing Ewan Griffiths. City almost equalised when Noah Williams’ shot was saved, and the rebound fell to Luke Pearce, who reacted quickest and fired an effort goalwards. However, he was somehow denied by Oscar Varney in the Coventry goal.
The visitors doubled their lead five minutes after the break when Conrad Ambursley’s inviting cross was turned home by Aidan Dausch. Substitute Cody Twose almost hit back instantly for City, but his strike was cleared off the line. The Bluebirds created the final clear chance of the game when Sekou Kaba’s cutback found Pearce, who worked the ball but was denied by the visitors’ keeper.
