Coventry Sphinx made the most of the fog to seal a 2-0 victory tonight at Cadbury Athletic. Paul Charnley's side who are applying for promotion to the Midland Alliance had Robbie Stevenson hit the bar in the 25th minute.

It was Stevenson who put Sphinx ahead in the 38th minute when he scored from a penalty after Chris Harris was pulled down.

With Covsupport sponsored sub Danny McSheffrey on as a substitute, Sphinx doubled their tally in the 73rd minute when Carl Woolstenholme headed on a corner for substitute Jermaine Murdock to stab in.

Sphinx's next home game is on Boxing Day against local rivals Coventry Copsewood. Kick off at Sphinx Drive is at 11.30am, allowing you time to get to Arena for the City v Ipswich game afterwards.
