Coventry 0 - 4 West brom

A dominant second-half display by West Brom saw them return to second in the Coca-Cola Championship with a 4-0 victory over 10-man Coventry in an eventful Midlands derby at the Ricoh Arena.

Albion moved to within six points of leaders Watford thanks to Paul Robinson's first goal of the season, a brace from Filipe Teixeira and a late strike by Robert Koren.

All the goals came after the break as the Baggies pressed home their numerical advantage to devastating effect following Michael Mifsud's red card early in the game.

The Sky Blues' 11-goal top scorer was sent off after only 10 minutes following a clash with Albion right-back Carl Hoefkens.Malta international Mifsud led with his right arm while challenging for a high ball and appeared to catch Hoefkens in the face, earning a straight red card from Phil Dowd.

After that it went all down hill and they finished the game losing by 4 goals.
