Derby County responded effectively, equalizing in the 38th minute. A well-placed pass from Oscar Fraulo set up Ben Brereton Díaz, who was fouled by Coventry’s goalkeeper, Carl Rushworth, leading to a penalty.

Brereton Díaz converted the penalty in the 76th minute, but Coventry City had already regained the lead earlier in the match. Jack Rudoni, who came off the bench, scored twice, including a decisive goal in the 80th minute that sealed the victory for Coventry.
