Harambee Stars prospect Zak Vyner Onyego continued to impress during Bristol City’s 1-1 draw with Watford in a Championship clash that took place on Saturday night.
Onyego was commanding, winning three of his five attempted areal duels and one of his two ground duels, and also made six tackles and interceptions underpinning his excellent reading of the game on the afternoon.
He also had an expected assists ratio of 0.46 as he nearly set up a goal that would have given Bristol all three points, all despite the large fact that he was playing in the middle of a back three.
Bristol knocked out West Ham in the third round of the FA Cup this week and were thus full of confidence heading into this week.
Watford - unbeaten since that Boxing Day hammering from City at Vicarage Road - began strongly and Kone set up Dele-Bashiru for an early attempt that was charged down.
However, the midfielder took the opportunity to fire the visitors ahead from the spot after Dickie handled a cross from the left and that goal appeared to spark Liam Manning's side into action.

STARS ABROAD Erick ‘Marcelo’ Ouma readies for intensive training in Turkey with Rakow Czestochowa
Harambee Stars' Erick 'Marcelo' Ouma is set to join Rakow Czestochowa for a training camp in Turkey as defending Polish champions gear up.
Twine should have leveled, dragging his finish wide from Knight's cross, but the debutant made no mistake with his next chance as Tommy Conway's shot was parried by Hamer and sat up neatly for Twine to head home.
The Hornets almost regained the lead just before the break when Giorgi Chakvetadze set up the lively Yaser Asprilla, but City goalkeeper Max O'Leary reacted quickly to smother the chance.
Twine's set-pieces provided a significant threat for City in the second period, setting up chances for both Knight and Dickie, as well as Ross McCrorie.
Watford rang the changes but couldn't find a winner as Kone arrowed a long-range shot over the bar and Andrews was denied late on by O'Leary.
