Manchester City 19th in Division One | Coventry City 10th in Division One
City go through to the last eight for the first time in eight years but it’s not pretty. Lady Luck helps them to survive after Regis chests down Smith’s cross and drives in the winner. Manchester’s failure to press home their advantage leaves manager Machin on the verge of the sack.
