Oxford United boss Matt Bloomfield said that he was "incredibly proud" of his players after a draw against league leaders Coventry City. Despite being reduced to ten men the U's held on to frusrtate the hosts and leave the CBS Arena with a point. "Thank you to the fans for their support today through the game and at the end, they certainly recognise the grit and determination the players played with," Bloomfield told BBC Radio Oxford. "Going away from home to the leaders and getting a point is a really good point - we have to be incredibly proud, getting a clean sheet, too." Oxford are next in action when they take on Norwich City at the Kassam in midweek.
