Newcastle hotshot Armstrong held as Coventry defeated

In-form Coventry City striker Adam Armstrong was unable to continue his scoring spree at the weekend, as his side went down to Wes Midlands rivals Walsall in League One.

The 18-year-old went into the clash having scored five goals in the first three league games of the season, but was unable to find the back of the net against a solid Saddlers outfit.

Armstrong, who is on loan with the Sky Blues until January, had one shot blocked by Walsall defender Tom Downing as his side went down 2-1 at Banks's Stadium.
