Championship: Middlesbrough move level with leaders Coventry
Share
Coventry City lost for the second straight game, meaning they now only lead Middlesbrough in the Championship race on goal difference.
Coventry City's 2-1 defeat to QPR allowed Middlesbrough to draw level with them at the top of the Championship on Saturday.
Coventry looked ready to bounce back from Monday's defeat to Norwich City when Josh Eccles headed Jack Rudoni's excellent delivery home early in the second half at Loftus Road.
A sublime near-post flick from Richard Kone levelled things up in the 66th minute, though, and Nicolas Madsen fired a loose ball into the roof of the net after Carl Rushworth failed to hold onto a cross.
The Sky Blues' once commanding 10-point lead consequently completely evaporated, with Middlesbrough taking full advantage.
