Middlesbrough's Assombalonga scores 100th league goal in Bristol City draw

Britt Assombalonga scored his 100th league goal in England as Middlesbrough were held to a 2-2 draw by Bristol City in Saturday's Championship outing.

The 26-year-old was making his sixth league appearance of the season and gave the visitors a 2-1 lead in the 68th minute.

His effort was neutralised by Tommy Rowe who drew Bristol City level in the 81st minute as both teams settled for a share of the spoils.

Assombalonga's second-half effort took his tally to 100 goals in the English Football League, excluding play-offs and he has scored more times for Middlesbrough than any other club (32) since his arrival from Nottingham Forest in 2017.
