In the 14th round of the 2021/22 Championship, West Brom beat Bristol City 3-0 at home, consolidating the top three positions in the table. Hegel scored his first goal of his bloomers career, but then wasted plenty of chances. Batley's header broke the goal and Grant sealed the win with his sixth goal in six games.
As captain Livermore was suspended for accumulating a yellow card, the injured Moat also failed to return from the line of fire, and the center forward was forced to rotate both. Morumbi continued to play, with Snowdgrass making his first start of the season in his new position. Before the kick-off of the first and second halves, one fan in each of the stands of both teams suddenly fell ill and needed emergency medical treatment, and the security guards on the court and the doctors of both teams were all dispatched, so that both kick-off times were forced to be postponed, but fortunately both finally regained consciousness in the hospital.
In the opening 7th minute, Phillips split the ball on the right side, Francon crossed the first time, Hegel wrapped up the goal, West Brom 1-0! Immediately after Putrajaya kicked off, Wells single-handedly broke the goal, but Weiman touched the ball first, causing the former to be offside and the goal was cancelled. Hegel then wasted three consecutive chances, first flying Townsend's cross from close range, then picking up Grant's volley high, then stealing the opponent's return pass but deflecting a single knife in the goalkeeper's face. In addition, Snowder Grasse shot through the column. Fortunately, in the last moments of the first half, Furlong's hand threw the ball again, Batley flicked his head to break the goal, and West Brom led 2-0 into the half-time.
In the second half, West Brom was still in shape, Grant was first saved with a small angle, then snatched Simpson's return pass, and single-handedly picked up the goalkeeper, West Brom 3-0! In the 72nd minute, Hégel missed another chance, this time with a direct pass from Deangana 4, who chose to cross in front of the attacking goalkeeper, but was cleared in front of the goal line. West Brom successfully limited the opponent's counterattack and eventually won 3-0 to Bristol City.
