Ten-man West Ham United were dealt a third-round exit from the Emirates FA Cup at the hands of Bristol City, with Tommy Conway’s early strike subjecting the visitors to a 1-0 defeat in the Ashton Gate replay.
The teams were reacquainted in the West Country little over a week after their 1-1 draw at London Stadium, and Conway – who scored the equaliser in the first match – duly finished the EFL Championship outfit’s first real clear-cut chance to earn the crucial advantage.
Saïd Benrahma was given his marching orders shortly after the interval, and though Tomáš Souček and Emerson led the charge for a way back into the clash, City held on to secure progression to the fourth round.
