City End 2016 With A Draw

Last updated : 31 December 2016 By CNS Sport
Coventry City ended 2016 with a 1-1 draw at Peterborough United.
 
Russell Slade made a number of changes and saw his side take the lead in the 19th minute when Jordan Willis was left unmarked to score from eight yards.
 
City's battling spirit and a 4-5-1 formation saw them restricting the home side who went into the game unbeaten in three, to half , none of which really threatened Lee Burge's goal.
 
In what was City's best  performance of the last few months in a League fixture, the Sky Blues defended really well but it in stoppage time, Bostwick levelled from a Maddison cross after the referee refused to give City a free kick for a foul on Marvin Sordell and it was only a draw.
