Ghana defender Baba Rahman features as Reading beat Coventry in Championship
Ghana defender Abdul Baba Rahman was in action for Reading in their 1-0 win over Coventry in English Championship on Saturday.
The 28-year, who lasted for 76 minutes before being replaced by Naby Sarr put up an impressive display to help his side secure a vital victory.
In a cagey first half, both goalkeepers were called into action to maintain the 0-0 scoreline.
Reading's Joe Lumley saved well from Callum O'Hare while Coventry's Ben Wilson kept out a fine Yakou Meite header.
Coventry went behind 12 minutes into the second period, when Frenchman Amadou Mbengue was on hand to nod in his first Reading goal.
And City, try as they did, were unable to force a fightback as the hosts held on with relative ease.
Reading went into the World Cup recess in poor form, with only two wins from 10 games, while Coventry had won seven of their nine matches, including their last four without conceding a goal, to move from bottom of the Championship to 11th place.
Rahman featured in all three games for the Black Stars as they crashed out of the 2022 World Cup after losing 2-0 to Uruguay in their final group game.
Ghana finished bottom of Group H with three points - losing two and winning one.
