Coventry City boss Frank Lampard has told BBC CWR that their win against Blackburn Rovers was "a step forward" for his camp having beaten the play-off chasers to move up to 13th in the Championship table.

"It was a difficult first half, we weren't at our best. But we got the goal and I think we deserved a moment like that. Sometimes we've not got what we deserved. We had to take the opportunity to be one up at half-time," he said.

"Our second goal was a really good goal and we had other chances as well. We did some of the difficult stuff you have to do on a night like this. We dug in, defended well and we saw out the game really well.

"Our impact subs did really well so it was a good night and a step forward again.

"They had a couple of moments and that's when we started to make changes. We made some changes for freshness and the players that came in gave us a good solidity.

"These things are important for building feeling, that we can come to places like this and win two games on the trot. Now we have to recover and go again.

"Winning games like this in midweek and coming away like this, is really important for feeling and the lads have to understand what it takes to win."
