  "account": "Coventry City secured their place out of the relegation zone with a 4-1 victory over Newcastle United at their home ground, Coventry Building Society Arena. The Sky Blues, led by manager Frank Lampard, became the first team in 127 years to win two Premier League matches straight after four consecutive losses without scoring. Jack Rudoni opened the scoring with a penalty in the first half, marking Coventry's first-ever Premier League goal at their new home. Sidiki Cherif doubled the lead with a powerful strike just before halftime, his first goal in the top flight. Sven Botman pulled one back for Newcastle late in the second half, but Ellis Simms and Stephen Mfuni sealed the win with late goals, propelling Coventry from 19th to 14th place in the league table. This victory came after Coventry's first points of the season against Nottingham Forest and bolstered their chances of avoiding relegation in their debut Premier League season since 2001.",
