JOSH BROWNHILL broke Barnsley hearts as he netted a dramatic injury time equaliser to salvage a 2-2 draw for Bristol City.
The Tykes looked to be heading for the win after Brad Potts scored late on, only for Lee Johnson’s side to add to the growing misery at Oakwell Stadium.
The home side needed just seven minutes to take the lead against the Robins, as Kieffer Moore powered in a close range header following a George Moncur corner.
Barnsley should have doubled the score on multiple occasions, but Lloyd Isgrove, Moore and Gary Gardener all spurned key opportunities.
And they were made to pay for their missed chances when Famara Diedhiou equalised for City in the 31st minute, finding the top right corner with a delightful strike from the edge of the box.
Jose Morais’ men were piling on the pressure in the second half, with Potts, Andy Yiadom and Andy Hamill all going close.
And their relentless attack paid off in the 78th minute when Potts nipped in front of his marker to get on the end of a low Moore delivery.
The 23-year-old then steered his outside of the right foot strike into the far right corner to send the Barnsley fans into delirium.
But elation soon turned to despair when Brownhill found the back of the net in the 91st minute with a looping header into the far right corner.
