Jason Knight rises high to score Robins leveller at Swansea

Republic of Ireland midfielder Jason Knight found the net for Bristol City as the they fought back to deny Swansea victory in an entertaining 1-1 Sky Bet Championship draw in rain-soaked South Wales.

The Dubliner's towering header 14 minutes from time gave the Robins a share of the points that their second-half performance warranted.

Swansea had led from the 15th minute when centre-back Ben Cabango claimed a rare goal from Eom Ji-sung's corner.

The deadlock was broken in contentious circumstances as Robins and uncapped Ireland goalkeeper Max O'Leary appeared to be pinned on his goal-line by Ronald and unable to challenge for a ball that Cabango stroked home.

With the help of Ronald, Eom's corner made it towards the far post and the unmarked Cabango bagged his first goal since April 2023.

Bristol City came within inches of an instant riposte as Boys in Green Under-21 striker and one-time senior cap Sinclair Armstrong prodded against the woodwork before Swansea almost doubled their lead in bizarre circumstances.

Ollie Cooper pressed to block Zak Vyner's attempted clearance 40 yards out with Robins goalkeeper O'Leary out of position.

O'Leary had to watch in horror as the ball ran towards his unmanned goal before striking the outside of a post.

Cooper made his first Wales start in Montenegro earlier this month and was playing with a confidence and freedom that posed the visitors numerous problems.

Goncalo Franco accepted a delightful Cooper pass to beat Irish defender Luke McNally and smash a shot straight at O'Leary, who pushed the ball to safety.

Zipotnik chested wide after Cooper switched from his station on the left to pop on the right, and Swansea possibly counted themselves unlucky to lead by only one at the break.
