Coventry City’s match against Preston North End at the CBS Arena turned out to be a night to forget as they suffered their worst performance of the season, resulting in a disappointing 3-0 defeat and a drop to eighth place in the Championship.
The downfall began within the first minute as they conceded from a well-rehearsed set-piece, and their situation worsened with a second goal in the 20th minute, compounded by an injury leading to a player being carried off the field at the half-hour mark. The despair continued with an own goal by Bobby Thomas just before halftime, effectively sealing their fate in the match.
