Championship roundup: Coventry end away woes, Leicester denied late on
Leaders Coventry win 2-0 at struggling West Brom
Leicester draw 2-2 at Stoke in Gary Rowett’s first game
Coventry, the leaders, won away for the first time since 25 November and their 2-0 victory at the Hawthorns left West Brom, who have not won in nine league games and not scored a league goal in 360 minutes, deeper in relegation trouble.
Coventry took the lead with their first attack of the game, punishing West Brom’s high defensive line. Frank Onyeka won the ball in midfield, Milan van Ewijk sent a long ball over the top and Ephron Mason-Clark chested it down before lobbing goalkeeper Max O’Leary, who got a hand to the shot. Mason-Clark got the wrong side of Alfie Gilchrist, who tried in vain to clear the ball off the line and ended up in the back of the net. The forward’s seventh goal of the season was his first since Boxing Day.
