Bristol City had a strong start to the game against Plymouth Argyle, with Nahki Wells and Zak Vyner having some good chances early on. However, they were unable to hit the target. The Argyle keeper, Daniel Grimshaw, was kept busy just after the half-hour mark, making three saves in a row to keep the Robins at bay.
The home team thought they had taken the lead right before halftime when Anis Mehmeti’s shot was saved by Grimshaw and Wells put in the rebound. Unfortunately, the goal was disallowed for offside. Despite dominating possession with 71% of the ball and taking 13 shots compared to Plymouth’s one in the first half, the game remained goalless.
Bristol City continued their attacking pressure in the second half, with Grimshaw denying Luke McNally and Mehmeti early on. Finally, in the 57th minute, the Robins broke the deadlock with Mehmeti’s shot deflecting off Twine and finding the back of the net. Mehmeti added another goal shortly after, cutting inside and finishing with a low shot into the bottom corner.
The goals kept coming, and Mehmeti completed his hat-trick with a powerful strike into the net, bringing his season total to six goals. Substitute Armstrong came off the bench to score the fourth goal, securing a convincing victory for Liam Manning’s team. Armstrong outpaced the Argyle defense and calmly slotted the ball past Grimshaw.
Overall, it was a dominant performance by Bristol City, showcasing their attacking prowess and clinical finishing. The win will undoubtedly boost their confidence and momentum as they continue their season.
