Coventry manager Mark Robins was left fuming with the decision to send off Liam Kitching, which took some of the shine off his sides 2-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday. Kitching was shown a red card Christian Pulisic Jersey after the final whistle at the Coventry Building Society Arena after referee Oliver Langford judged him to have retaliated to being pushed by Wednesdays Bambo Diaby, who was also sent off. That controversial incident came after two goals from Tatsuhiro Sakamoto had guided the Sky Blues to their second straight win in the festive period. Robins said: I didnt see what had happened, but Ive seen it back now and Im appealing that. Theres no way he can be sent off for that, no way. The kids come from behind him and its a sault; hes pushed him in his face, so where does he go? He cant go anywhere because hes come into his space, so he (Diaby) has pushed him, hes then stuck his head on his head and Kitch hasnt reacted. Whether hes put his hands up to stop it, I dont know, but its an attack, its ridiculous and then hes come back for seconds, so 100 per cent Im appealing it. Im furious. What happened at the end can sort of detract from a performance that was actually pretty good. Two brilliant goals, well worked and well finished and Tatsus been doing that, hes been growing in confidence, hes taking shots now. It was a slightly scuffed finish with which Sakamoto gave Coventry the lead after 20 minutes when he was picked out by Haji Wrights cut-back. The Japan international sealed the points in the 89th minute with a fine finish past Cameron Dawson, not long before tempers boiled over following the end of the game. Sheffield Wednesday bo s Danny Rohl said: I think it was a fair-play game, there were not bad fouls or anything like this. Its a hard decision, for both a red card after the game, but its the decision from the ref and we cant change it. This is football but its not helpful for us at the moment because weve now got Callum (Paterson) out for the next games and Bambo out for the next games. I tried everything to bring some fresh legs in, but this is what our situation is at the moment, this is Club América Jersey what weve been handed and its about preparing for our next game (at Preston), recovery and then going again. On his sides performance, Rohl added: I think you saw two different halves. First half, Coventry was the better team. We were not clinical in our transition in the first half, but in the second half I think we dominated the game.

The are fresh off a Super Bowl title and one of the greatest offseasons in recent memory. Kansas City is set up to not just win in 2020, but over the next several years as its franchise quarterback and top defensive player are signed for the long haul. sees the potential of a dynasty in Kansas City."This is only the beginning," Jones said to KCSP 610 Sports Radio Monday, . "We plan to have another parade and another parade and another parade. We're going to make sure we bring not one, not two, not three, not four, but five-plus rings to Kansas City. It's been 50 years of waiting, but the wait is over now. It's time to create a dynasty."In case those comments sound eerily familiar, that may be because we are 10 years removed from LeBron James and his "not five, not six, not seven" statement after the Miami Heat signed him away from the Cleveland Cavaliers. LeBron played four seasons in Miami, winning two championships -- not exactly the seven he was talking about during that Heat pep rally.So it's easy to roll the eyeballs and laugh at Jones, but he does have some validity to his statement. The Chiefs did sign Patrick Mahomes to a 12-year deal worth up to $503 million, but the franchise quarterback admitted he left some money on the table to Quay Walker Jersey keep the franchise in contention for Super Bowls over the life of the contract. This was how the Chiefs were able to sign Jones to a five-year, $80 million deal, Devonte Wyatt Jersey which is really for two years when looking at the details of the deal -- a strategy Chiefs general manager Brett Veach has used in retaining 20 of the team's 22 starters from the Super Bowl title team. KC QB #15 CMP%65.9YDs4031TD26INT5YD/Att8.33The Chiefs have nine players making over $10 million in salary this season, which doesn't include Mahomes (his cap number doesn't reach over $20 million until next year). Their key players are signed for the foreseeable future as is the top free agent on Kansas City's roster heading into 2021, making the opportunity to win a championship even greater over the next two seasons.Of course, there's the Andy Reid factor. Reid has over two decades of succe s in the NFL, having a top-10 offense in points scored in 17 of his 21 years. His .688 win percentage with the Chiefs skyrockets to .774 with Mahomes as his starting quarterback. Then there's the 207 regular season wins (seventh all-time) and 15 playoff victories (sixth all-time).Mahomes and Reid in the league. As long as the two are paired together, the Chiefs will be competing for Super Bowls every year.For the Chiefs to live up to Jones' statement, it will be difficult -- but four more titles in 12 years with Mahomes and Reid isn't impo sible. and Bill Belichick found a way to accomplish the task.
