Coventry vs Bristol City live Updates from the CBS Arena
Bristol City produced a fine performance against in-form Coventry City

Bristol City secured a point at the CBS Arena but were left feeling it should have been more as Ellis Simms salvaged a draw for the hosts, four minutes from time in a game the Sky Blues had largely been second best.

The Robins dominated the opening 20 minutes but fell behind as Tatsuhiro Sakamoto squeezed a shot past Max O'Leary and into teh far post.

City maintained control though and drew level in first-half injury time when Rob Dickie glanced in a header from Taylor Gardner-Hickman's diagonal ball into the box.

The visitors had to defend more in the second half but still restricted their hosts to half-chances and crosses before taking the lead via a smart Nahki Wells finish.

They had opportunities to win the game themselves with Ross McCrorie going close and then Harry Cornick denied by an excellent Bradley Collins stop at the death.

That was after Simms had restored parity with Max O'Leary failing to deal with Liam Kitching's driven shot and the substitute was in the right place at the right time.
