Last updated : 29 October 2014 By MS

Coventry Sphinx are through to the second round of the Midland Football League Cup after a 3-1 extra time win at Tipton Town.

Luke Hopkins included youngsters Jacob Dodds and Kyle Jaynes and it was Jaynes who fired Sphinx ahead slipping the ball past the keeper.

The home side levelled before half-time and with no goals in the second half, this cup tie went to extra time.

Seven minutes into the first period and Jacob Dodds scored an absolute cracker to fire Sphinx in to a lead which was extended when Luke Downes scored a third.
