Coventry City manager Frank Lampard has commended Ghanaian forward Brandon Thomas-Asante’s work ethic despite the team’s 2-1 loss to Norwich City at Carrow Road.
Lampard's side looked set to take all three points courtesy of a well-taken first-half goal from Milan van Ewijk but were stunned as Ghanaian midfielder Forson Amankwah scored twice in stoppage time to turn the game on its head.
However, Lampard chose to focus on the positives, highlighting Thomas-Asante’s impressive performance.
“Brandon [Thomas-Asante] as well up front, he was very good and all of his diligence off the ball and his work ethic for the team, as well as his hold-up play.”
Thomas-Asante played the full 90 minutes, marking his 27th appearance in all competitions this season.
The 26-year-old joined Coventry from West Bromwich Albion and is currently in his debut season with the club.
After 26 games, Coventry sits 16th in the Championship standings. Lampard took over as manager earlier in the campaign, replacing Mark Robbins.
