Match report: Bristol Rovers 1-2 Coventry City
Two first half goals saw Bristol Rovers fall to a 2-1 defeat at the Memorial Stadium.
The Gas began the game in the ascendency with Jonson Clarke-Harris chasing down a through ball before coolly slotting past Marosi in the Coventry net from a sharp angle.
The visitors responded well though, picking out Allen with a lofted forward pass before he calmly stroked past Blackman in the Rovers net. Just before the break, the Sky Blues took the lead, as Liam Walsh rocketed a cutback from the byline into the top left corner.
