Bradford hold Bristol C to draw

Tuesday 21 October 2014 22:55, UK

Christopher Routis shocked Bristol City with an 86th-minute equaliser as Bradford twice came from behind to earn a 2-2 draw.

The defender volleyed in off the crossbar after substitute James Hanson had headed down a Filipe Morais corner. The goal came just three minutes after Aden Flint had grabbed his second of the game for the hosts, firing in from close range following a Luke Freeman corner. Flint had headed the Robins in front on eight minutes, rising unmarked to power home Freeman's free-kick from the right. Bradford's first equaliser also came from a set-piece, Billy Clarke's glancing header at the near post from Mark Yeates' 20th-minute free-kick taking a deflection past Frank Fielding. Clarke should have put the visitors ahead soon afterwards, somehow contriving to hit the outside of a post with his volley when Yeates' chip came back off the crossbar and left him with an open goal. Kieran Agard and Freeman fired just wide for the league leaders before the two late goals, but the visitors were well worthy of being on terms at the end.
