Cardiff Devils left the Skydome on Sunday with two points for the first time this season, and ended a winless run in Coventry going back to last season.

A tight game saw Blair Riley give the visitors the lead just before the halfway mark of the match. Andrew Johnston levelled at 33:31 to give a familiar pattern to recent meetings between the teams.

This time however it was Cardiff who went ahead inside the final ten minutes, Matias Sointu with what proved to be the game winning goal 6:09 from the end.
