Coventry City etched their name into the history books with a commanding 2-0 victory over Swansea City at the Swansea.com Stadium, marking their first-ever win over the Welsh side.
From the opening whistle, Coventry showed intent, and it didn’t take long for their efforts to pay off. In the 17th minute, Brandon Thomas-Asante turned creator, threading a precise pass to Ellis Simms, who coolly slotted home to give the visitors an early lead.
Despite dominating possession, Swansea struggled to break through Coventry’s resolute defense. And just before halftime, Thomas-Asante produced a moment of magic. Picking up the ball outside the box, the Ghanaian winger unleashed a thunderous right-footed strike that soared into the top corner, leaving the Swansea keeper rooted to the spot.
Swansea pushed forward in search of a response after the break but lacked the cutting edge, managing six shots without troubling the Coventry goalkeeper. The Sky Blues, on the other hand, showcased their efficiency, making the most of their chances to secure all three points.
Thomas-Asante’s goal and assist bring his season tally to four goals and two assists in 29 Championship appearances. With this victory, Coventry climbs to 11th place with 41 points and will look to build on their momentum when they host Leeds United on February 5th.
