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

But in the fifth minute of added time, Michael Sollbauer was fouled and had to receive lengthy treatment before Woodrow was able to take the spot-kick.

Despite the late blow, Bristol City remain top of the embryonic 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. Hughton, who replaced Sabri Lamouchi after Forest's four-game losing start to the season, will have been extremely encouraged by the performance of his new charges at Ewood Park.

The visitors looked solid and 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 eventually rewarded in the 90th minute through Joe Lolley's deflected strike, which ended a run of six straight league defeats.
