Lampard's Coventry earn landmark first Premier League win in 25 years
Coventry City secured their first Premier League win in 25 years with a 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest on Saturday. The Blues overcame a dismal start to the season, including losses to Arsenal and Manchester City. Jay Dasilva scored the winning goal in the 55th minute, capitalizing on a mistake by Forest's goalkeeper Matz Sels.
However, a late challenge by Igor Jesus for what appeared to be an equalizer was disallowed after a VAR review. Lampard, a three-time Premier League winner, praised his team's performance, stating that it was crucial for some players to feel like they belong in the top flight.
