Coventry City boss Chris Coleman accused his players of feeling sorry for themselves during Monday's 3-1 defeat at Reading.

The Sky Blues took an early lead at the Madejski Stadium through Daniel Fox before the floodgates opened and they lost for the fourth time on the road this season.

"The second and third goals were poor and you can't give good teams gifts," said a disappointed Coleman.

"After that we looked sorry for ourselves and there only looked like one winner after we went behind.

"We've played well in a lot of games but we lack that mental strength to nail wins to the wall.

"We are missing five or six players all the time and coming to a place like Reading is very hard."
