Harrison keeping it real for Coventry

18 March 2010 14:58
The Sky Blues took the lead against the Bluebirds and, despite being pegged back, looked to be on their way for a valuable point until Peter Whittingham converted a controversial injury-time penalty to snatch a 2-1 win for the visitors.[LNB]But the encounter was in stark contrast to the October meeting between the two sides at the Cardiff City Stadium which, with Coventry in the midst of a sorry slump in form, the Welsh outfit claimed a routine 2-0 victory.[LNB]With the midlands outfit now battling for a play-off place, manager Chris Coleman insisted prior to Tuesday's crunch clash that that game alone, regardless of the result, would not decide the club's promotion fate.[LNB]Harrison was quick to echo his words and added: "When we think back to when we played Cardiff earlier in the season, they beat us well at 2-0. What we did on Tuesday night, we weren't at our best and they're a good side, but we didn't half give them a game.[LNB]"We were unfortunate to come away with a defeat but for a couple of decisions. So we've got to keep it in perspective and look at our progress. We're now looking at competing with the big teams in the division and we're doing that well."[LNB][LNB]
