City Work Hard For Draw At Bradford City

Last updated : 25 November 2015 By CNS Staff

Coventry City picked up a valuable point on the road with a 0-0 draw at Bradford City tonight.

The Sky Blues arrived in Yorkshire as League One leaders but without John Fleck who had a tight hamstring. 

At Valley Parade, a good stadium on three sides apart from the away end which saw adult City supporters charged £25, a sixth of what an adult paid for a Bradford City season ticket, the game started at a frantic pace.

In the 20th minute, Adam Armstrong attacked down the left and struck the left hand post of Ben Williams againsr a Bradford side which went close in the 33rd minute through McArdle.

Armstrong had a couple of efforts in the early part of the half which saw chances at a premium.

Bradford did force one great save from Charles-Cook and Ben Turner headed wide from a corner with six minutes left in a game where a share of the points was a fair result. 

City: Charles-Cook, Ricketts, Martin, Turner, Stokes, Vincelot, Bigirimana, Murphy, Armstrong, Lameiras (Kent 71) Fortune (O'Brien 58). Subs ‎: Burge, Phillips, Haynes, Thomas, Tudgay.
