Coventry City head coach Frank Lampard reflects on the 2-0 win against West Brom.<\/p>\n

Coventry’s win away at struggling West Brom in the early kick-off strengthened their lead at the top of the table. <\/p>\n

Manager Frank Lampard spoke to BBC CWR Radio:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe overall professionalism of the game pleased me, how we approached it, we scored two fantastic goals of real quality in different ways. We were never really threatened by them.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the second half, we wanted to be a bit more compact, with a mid-block, and it make it harder for them because we could feel a little bit of anxiety in the stadium. The players delivered all those messages, which you have to do to get a good away win and a good away performance like this.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a great goal from Ephron [Mason-Clarke]. The ball was won back, the timing of it, his run through the backline, a great finish and he showed a real calmness. That gave us a good feeling, but we\u2019ve lost some away games when we\u2019ve gone a goal up, but we carried it on and then Rudi\u2019s goal was special.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m delighted for him individually, how he\u2019s been training, how he\u2019s been playing. He\u2019s looked fitter and fresher and he\u2019s got a goal which is of the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Two fantastic goals of real quality’ – Lampardpublished at 17:17 GMT 17:17 GMT FT: West Brom 0-2 Coventry…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":438314,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-438313","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-football","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/438313","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=438313"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/438313\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/438314"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=438313"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=438313"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=438313"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
