Coventry City 3rd in Division Two | Manchester City 4th in Division Two

Oakes’ misdirected back-pass sends City through after a thriller. Hudson’s classy lob sets the scene. Breathless City then weather a first-half storm, with Young starring. Clements’ low shot makes it 2-1 before Crossan equalises. Harris and Summerbee have a bitter ding-dong battle.
