MATCH RATING

Entertainment 6

PHILLIPS: Clearly enjoys playing at the Ricoh. Backed up man-of-the-match display earlier in the month with a string of good saves 8

MELLOR: Didn't get forward as much as Robertson on the other flank and less decisive in defence 6

DAVIS: Steady and dependable performance. Coped well with the aerial threat 7

DUGDALE: Got caught under the flight of the ball for City's goal and looked shaky when put under pressure 5

ELLIS: Attacked the cross well for the goal and was the best of the three centre-backs 8

ROBERTSON: A threat down the left, provided good deliveries from corners, particularly the goal and a crucial clearance off the line 8

MURPHY: Looked after the ball well and made a number of key passes to start attacks 7

OSMAN: Broke play up well and was a physical presence in midfield 6

INMAN: Had a quiet afternoon, struggled to get into the game and often left isolated on the left 5

POGBA: Didn't give the centre-halves a moment's peace, but failed to provide much of a cutting edge 6

MOORE: Got into some promising positions, but was often found wanting in terms of strength 6

SUBSTITUTES

ANEKE (for Davis, 72): Came on with around 20 minutes left and helped Crewe secure late win 6

CLAYTON (for Pogba, 76): Made an immediate impact, scoring the winner with his first touch 7

TURTON (for Inman, 89): Came on with a minute to go, too late to make a contribution 5

Subs not used: Martin, Leitch-Smith, Ray, Colclough.

COVENTRY: Murphy; Christie, Cameron, Edjenguele, Dickinson; Baker, Jennings (Wilson 82), Bailey, McSheffrey; Elliott (Moussa 74), L Clarke.

Subs not used: Dunn, J Clarke, Thomas, Fleck, Willis.
