Coventry City manager Frank Lampard has commended Ghana striker Brandon Thomas-Asante for his impressive performance in the team's 2-0 win over Middlesbrough.

Thomas-Asante played 18 minutes off the bench and registered an assist, making a significant impact on the game.

"He showed physicality, speed and desire," Lampard said, highlighting Thomas-Asante's key attributes. "He's been injured, came back, trained well and has been telling me he's ready and he showed me he was ready today and he had a massive impact on the game."

The win has secured Coventry City's place in the playoff race for a spot in the English Premier League next season. The team will face Sunderland on May 9 and May 13 for a chance to advance to the finals of the playoffs.

Leeds and Burnley have already secured promotion to the top-flight division, and four teams, including Coventry City and Sunderland, will battle for the last qualification spot.

Thomas-Asante's performance has boosted Coventry City's chances, and the team will be looking to build on their momentum in the upcoming matches.
