Highfield Road game # | Gary McAllister game #1
Asaba’s superb strike is cancelled out as Bothroyd’s header is judged to have crossed the line to Neil Warnock’s chagrin. The winner is another cracker from the livewire McSheffrey. City defend desperately after the break and Asaba hits a post. Delorge needs stitches after Page’s tackle.
