Ghana forward Brandon Thomas-Asante made an immediate impact on his return from injury, setting up the winning goal as Coventry City edged past Millwall on Tuesday night.

The 26-year-old was making only his second appearance since recovering from injury but showed little sign of rust, providing the decisive assist that sealed victory for the Sky Blues.

Thomas-Asante’s contribution continues an impressive season for the striker, who has now been directly involved in 14 goals across all competitions, scoring 10 times and registering four assists.

His performance will come as a boost for Coventry City, who have relied on his energy and movement in attack, and a timely reminder of his importance to the team as the campaign reaches a crucial stage.

For the Ghanaian forward, the assist underlined both his resilience after injury and his growing influence, with his form likely to be watched closely by both club and country in the months ahead.
