Skubala’s Tough Debut as Bristol City Stumble | Bristol News
Description
Bristol City’s dream Carabao Cup run ended in heartbreak as they fell to League Two side Walsall, despite dominating possession and firing off 33 shots. New manager Michael Skubala, making his debut since leaving Lincoln City, was visibly frustrated, blaming a lack of quality in the final third and too many unnecessary touches that hindered their attack. They conceded a “cheap goal” and were caught transitioning twice, only ramping up urgency after falling behind. Five debutants and a late introduction of striker Dom Ballard couldn’t turn the tide. Skubala acknowledged it’s not the start they wanted — especially losing to a lower-league team — but emphasized the need for growth as they prepare for their Championship opener against Millwall next week. The real season, he said, begins now.
