Bristol City’s Diedhiou scores first FA Cup goal as Shrewsbury Town forces replay

Famara Diedhiou got his first FA Cup goal as Bristol City were held to a 1-1 draw by Shrewsbury Town in Saturday’s FA Cup third round.

The Senegal international scored on the half-hour mark to give the Robins a half-time lead at Ashton Gate.

Diedhiou was well placed to head home a pleasant header from Niclas Eliasson’s cross that left goalkeeper Murphy with no chance.
