Checkatrade Trophy Final - 2nd April 2017

Today is the football match I've been looking forward to for weeks.

Very excited  setting off for Wembley, come on Coventry!

A visit to the Wembley shop and a new scarf and sky blue bear.

Coventry started really strongly.

Fantastic 11th minute goal from Gael Bigirimana.

1 minute of extra time for the first half.

Half time.

Fingers crossed we can hold on to this lead.

Coventry had so many more corners and shots at goal, than normal.

Gael Bigirimana had a fantastic game.

Shoot, Stuart Beavon!

Another corner from George Thomas.
