Coventry climbed out of the Premier League relegation zone with a win over Sunderland, according to a match report from The Guardian. The result leaves Sunderland, which was reduced to ten men, at the bottom of the table.
The Press Association, which wrote the Guardian report, said Tatsuhiro Sakamoto scored his first Premier League goal 17 minutes into the match to put Coventry ahead. Taiwo Awoniyi then scored his first league goal for the home side eight minutes before halftime, doubling the lead, the report said.
According to the same report, Jack Rudoni sealed the victory early in the second half. The Guardian report names these three scorers, but the material available for this story does not include a final score.
BBC News reported that Frank Lampard's Coventry City lifted itself out of the relegation zone after beating Sunderland, which it said remained "rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table."
The two outlets used different terms for Coventry's new position. The BBC headline said Coventry was out of the bottom three, while The Guardian described the win as lifting Coventry out of the relegation zone. Neither source gives Coventry's exact place in the table.
