_________________________________
Coventry Sphinx put in one of their worst performances of the season to lost 4-0 at Coleshill Town.


On a very cold night at Packington Lane, Danny McSheffrey fielded a team that was changed from the side that had lost 3-0 at Alvechurch on Saturday.



Apart from a seventh minute, Kyle Rhodes shot which was fumbled by the home keeper, Sphinx struggled to retain possession and found themselves a goal down after 18 minutes when Marvin Johnson was allowed room to get in an overhead kick which hit a divot and beat the diving Chris Daffern.


It could have been two when Chris Gummery's shot struck the cross bar on the half hour mark but fourteen minutes into the second half, Coleshill did increase their lead thanks to Matt Robinson using his elbow to bundle home a free kick which had deceived Daffern. With no complaints from the Sphinx defence, the goal stood.


Adam Kinder had one shot saved and Sphinx's best move of the match came in the 68th minute when Chris Wilson King beat his marker and crossed from the right flank for Kyle Rhodes to head over.


In the 70th minute, Coleshill were awarded a penalty which Luke Williams duly scored from and five minutes later, Matty Robinson ensured a miserable evening for Sphinx when he hit a fourth with a shot on the turn from twelve yards.



Coventry Sphinx take on Coalville Town on Saturday at Sphinx Drive. Kick off is at 3pm.
