He deserved that- Frank Lampard on Thomas-Asante’s brilliant goal for Coventry City [VIDEO]
Coventry City Football Club head coach, Frank Lampard, has described Ghana forward Brandon Solomon Thomas-Asante’s goal against Bristol City as “deserved”.
The Black Stars player’s second goal in the EFL Championship 2024-2025 season gave Coventry City a 1-0 win over Bristol in the 62nd minute.
Receiving a pass from Jack Rudoni, the former West Bromwich Albion player inside the penalty box, Thomas-Asante raced to meet the pass before rifling a shot into the top left corner of the post and in his post-game interview, Frank Lampard stated that Thomas-Asante’s goal was a deserved one.
“He didn’t play so many minutes, especially in his favoured position when I first got here because we’ve got some competition there, but his work ethic since he’s come in has been good and his all-round game has been good.”
“That last bit has been missing but you have to work towards that, and he deserved that today.
