It's 2-1 at St. Andrews! Long range shots are about the only things that David Bentley is good at, which makes it somewhat surprising that Coventry have let him shoot. The ex-Tottenham man does a couple of stepovers to get some space, the defenders back off, and then he spanks a shot over Keiren Westwood that hits the bottom of the crossbar before nestling rather happily in Coventry's goal. It really was a stunning strike, but the ineptitude of Coventry's defence was total.
Birmingham City Vs. Coventry City: David Bentley Wondergoal Gets One Back
Anyway, I'm happy to report that this game is not in fact boring. Instead, it looks like a U-18 game where every single defender is four years underage. Coventry were well in control at 2-0 up, but there are more goals in it (as I write this, Birmingham try another cross to Nikola Zigic, so maybe not) and the visitors will be irritated that they've let their opponents get back into the match. With halftime coming up, they'll still be more pleased than their hosts, who are probably in for a right old shouting at in the dressing room.
