Clarke double wins it for Coventry

Two goals from Leon Clarke gave Coventry City a narrow 2-1 win against Hartlepool United in the FA Cup second round.

Clarke scored his second of the night deep into stoppage time to set up a third-round meeting with Barnsley.

The striker scored his first after 35 minutes before it was cancelled out by Jack Baldwin's 88th-minute effort.

With the game seemingly heading for extra time, Clarke added his second in the 93rd minute to confirm the Sky Blues' passage to the third round.
