CHAMPIONSH­IP REVIEW

-

CAULEY Woodrow rescued a point for Barnsley at Oakwell with a penalty in the 12th minute of stoppage time as a 2-2 draw ended Bristol City’s perfect start to the Championsh­ip season.

Goals from Jack Hunt and Tyreeq Bakinson early in the second half turned the game around for City after Barnsley took the lead through Michal Helik.

But Woodrow fired home from the spot to level.

Bristol City remain top of the table from Reading, who were held to a goalless draw at Middlesbro­ugh.

Chris Hughton marked his first game in charge of Nottingham Forest with a late 1-0 win at Blackburn.

The visitors took hold of proceeding­s as the game wore on, with Thomas Kaminski saving well from Lyle Taylor and Sammy Ameobi, who also struck a post.

They were rewarded in the 90th minute through Joe Lolley’s deflected strike, which ended a run of six straight league defeats.

Wycombe are still looking for a first point after Millwall came from behind to record a 2-1 victory at Adams Park.

The Chairboys gave themselves hope through Scott Kashket’s bizarre opener after Bartosz Bialkowski miscontrol­led in his own six-yard box.

However, a Jed Wallace penalty and a fine Ryan Leonard strike gave the visitors the points.

Jordan Hugill scored a stoppage-time penalty as Norwich came from behind to beat 10-man Rotherham 2-1.

Freddie Ladapo gave Rotherham an early lead but then had a penalty saved by Tim Krul.

Michael Ihiekwe’s own goal saw Norwich draw level, with Angus Macdonald seeing red for the hosts before Hugill struck.

Stoke ended Luton’s unbeaten home record with a 2-0 win. Steven Fletcher and Nick Powell scored.

Ivan Toney’s brace eased Brentford to a 2-0 win over Coventry.

Barry Bannan’s 49th-minute penalty gave Sheffield Wednesday a 1-0 victory at Birmingham and Bournemout­h were held to a 0-0 draw by QPR.
