To turn the game around was a big pleasure - Lampard

Frank Lampard was delighted with his Coventry City side's second-half response as they came from behind to beat M69 rivals Leicester City and maintain their six-point lead at the top of the Championship.

Haji Wright tapped in the winner with just five minutes remaining to secure the three points for the Sky Blues, who had trailed to an early Jordan James goal before levelling through Ellis Simms.

Things haven't been quite so smooth in recent weeks for Coventry, and Lampard was understandably pleased by his side's reaction to falling behind.

Lampard told BBC CWR: "There was a great atmosphere from start to finish. It was tough in the first half, because they gave us some problems and they get their goal.

"They're a good team, with good individuals and their league position isn't the reality when they play like that. They gave us issues, but to turn the game around like that is a big pleasure.

"It's a good feeling for the group, because we had to tactically change some bits off the ball, but the big thing was overcoming the tension and the feeling of what the first half was, to reiterate to the players why they are where they are, at the top of the league, because of the work they've done and the quality they've got.

"They went out and responded, which was brilliant - and hence, the atmosphere in the stadium at the end of the game."
