Steady rain blanketed the South Stand as Newport County clashed with Stevenage on a chilly Saturday afternoon. The tactical adjustments made by manager Graham Coughlan have become apparent in their recent performances. Rather than sticking to an orthodox 4-4-2 formation, Newport has experimented with a fluid 4-3-3 that allows midfielders like H. Biggins to surge forward more frequently. The power and pace of striker C. Baker-Richardson also become crucial as he occupies defenders with his movement.
