Nothing Wrong With Cody's Goal - Pressley

Pressley on beating Hartlepool

Coventry City manager Steven Pressley said that there was nothing wrong with the goal scored by Cody McDonald in the 1-0 win against Hartlepool.

Pools boss John Hughes felt his side should have had a free kick but Pressley told the Press Association: "I have seen the replay three times and there was no foul.

"Cody used his body really well and turned the opponent and then a terrific finish for him.

"I am delighted for him because his work ethic for the team was terrific. Goals give strikers confidence so I am really pleased for him.

"He's a very intelligent striker, he moves well across the line and likes to dart in-between people and that was the movement for the goal."

"We hadn't won at home for two months so winning at home was a real monkey to get off our backs but for me the most pleasing thing is that there is a real resilience and determination in the group and I don't think they gave up a real chance in the entire 90 minutes.

"We have given ourselves a chance of getting into those play-off places."
