Highlights: Bristol City 2-2 Wigan Athletic
Monday, October 28th 2019
Watch the key moments as City stretched their run at home to six games unbeaten as they battled back to draw 2-2 with Wigan Athletic.
Andreas Weimann’s fifth goal of the season had got City up and running at Ashton Gate but a Cheyenne Dunkley double threatened an early Halloween nightmare.
But up stepped Pedro Pereira with an 86th-minute header - City’s second late goal in as many games - a treat for the home fans with a very important goal.
A combination of fine goalkeeping and the crossbar denied Weimann his second goal of the game, and what would have been a late winner, but the share of the points means City go one point behind second spot in the Championship standings.
Next up for Lee Johnson's men is a trip to Barnsley on Friday evening which will be televised live on Sky Sports (Friday, November 1st, 745pm KO).
