Despite a bright start, the Black Cats fell behind midway through the first half when Jamie Allen converted Viktor Gyokeres’ cutback.
Gyokeres eventually got on the scoresheet in the closing stages when he beat goalkeeper Anthony Patterson with a close-range finish, before Amad netted a late consolation goal in stoppage-time.
Here’s how the game played out:

84’ O’Nien drops back
Looks like O’Nien has now dropped into a deeper midfielder role, allowing Bennette to play as an advanced wing-back.
89’ Goal Coventry (Gyokeres)
That should seal it after Goddern is found on the right and cuts the ball back for Gyokeres who converts from close range.
2-0.
90+3’ GOOOOAAALLLL!!! AMAD
There’s still hope as Amad strikes a fine shot past Wilson.
The keeper was rooted to the spot.
