Reading come from behind to draw with Bristol City

Published on: 01 April 2023

Tommy Conway marked his return from injury by opening the scoring for Bristol City

Reading picked up their first point away from home this year as they came from a goal behind to draw 1-1 with Bristol City at Ashton Gate.

Tommy Conway marked his return from injury with his 10th goal of the campaign right before half-time to put the hosts ahead.

But against the run of play, Lucas Joao drew Reading level midway through the second half with a header from a free-kick.

Nahki Wells twice had the ball in the net for City but saw both efforts ruled out for offside and Andy King's late header hit the woodwork as the hosts failed to convert their superior chances.
