Coventry 3-1 Cambridge: Marc McNulty inspires Sky Blues win
Wednesday 31 January 2018 00:29, UK
Marc McNulty scored again as Coventry beat Cambridge 3-1 to keep up their promotion hunt in Sky Bet League Two.
The on-song striker notched his 15th goal of the season as the Sky Blues recorded their seventh successive home win.
Jordan Shipley and Michael Doyle scored either side of George Taft's consolation to wrap up the hosts' first win over the U's in 31 years, and move them to within one point of an automatic promotion spot.
Shaun Derry's U's are stuck in a bit of a rut and have not won a game since the turn of the year.
And they were behind after just 10 minutes when McNulty caressed his effort from the edge of the box into the bottom corner.
