Watford's John Eustace bundled home a dramatic stoppage-time equaliser to deny 10-man Bristol City in a 2-2 draw at Ashton Gate on Monday.

The experienced Hornets midfielder used his hip to convert Heidar Helguson's knock back for a goal that ensured both sides have now gone four games without a win in the Championship.

Watford had trailed twice, with Danny Haynes and Paul Hartley scoring either side of Tom Cleverley's equaliser, while City had Lewin Nyatanga sent off midway through the second half.

Haynes lashed home on 38 minutes, but five minutes later Cleverley's clinical drive levelled the scoreline - although Hartley's 30-yard free-kick (45) restored City's advantage.

Despite Eustace's goal coming in the 93rd minute, it was no more than Watford deserved as they had already had two Helguson goals wiped out by the officials.
