Luton boss Matt Bloomfield told BBC Three Counties Radio:

“The industry we are involved in is going to throw so many challenges your way and you have to try and stay calm and think clearly.

“We had the momentum, we hit the post, their goalkeeper has made a couple of incredible saves, but the ball doesn’t go in so there’s a risk of frustration.

“All of those things go into the pot and for us to find a moment right at the end is incredibly pleasing.

“Shandon is a boy who is really diligent about his work, I think he’s a fantastic player and for him to have that moment after some of the disappointments he’s had this year is fantastic.”

Luton goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski, remembering his late father:

“He was there every day, he pushed me to the limit, he never gave me a day off.

“It’s thanks to him that I’m here, thanks to him that I’ve got a career, he was not a man of many words but was direct in his approach for me and my brother.

“He watched every game till I was 18, 19, 20, he never missed a training session, he worked at night so he could take me to school and bring me to training, he did everything for me.

“For me, it’s very difficult, because I used to get a message after the game and I will not get that message any more, but he is with me forever.”

Coventry boss Frank Lampard told BBC CWR:

“We gave absolutely everything, we dug in with 10 men for a long, long time, I know it levelled out but the effort they put in against a team that goes direct, and cross it a lot, when you’re a man down it’s a long afternoon and the lads’ spirit was brilliant.

“It was probably a red (for Dasilva) – he said he didn’t mean to but he clips his heels and pretty much every referee, even thought they’re hard to predict at the minute, will give those and he was very quick with his card.

“There’s a great spirit in the group, that’s why we’ve been able to amass points and move up the table because of spirit first and quality second.

“It’s not easy to change gear from desperation and defending but (after their sending off) we got on the ball in different situations, didn’t create massive chances but they should have gone down to nine and I thought the game was ours – but you can’t legislate for a late mistake that leads to their goal.”
