One down, 44 to go! Afobe opens Bristol City's goal account against QPR

Benik Afobe scored his first goal for Bristol City in their 2-0 victory over Queens Park Rangers.

After joining Lee Johnson's side on a season-long loan from Stoke City this summer, the former Arsenal youngster promised to score 45 goals and he is off the mark to achieve his aim.

He opened his goal account at the Ashton Gate on Saturday by doubling the hosts lead in the 59th minute.
