Paris Maghoma, Mathias Kvistgaarden and an own goal from Ivan Mesik, forced by Anthony Musaba's driving run, cancelled out an early effort from Charlie Kelman on Saturday lunchtime.

Clement made some big selection calls, with Daniel Grimshaw retaining his place in goal ahead of the fit-again Vladan Kovacecic.

Harry Darling replaced Jose Cordoba in the back four, with Kvistgaarden starting ahead of Jovon Makama.

But City merited a first win in seven in all competitions with a gritty fightback.

Clement spoke exclusively to the Pinkun on Saturday afternoon at the Valley.
