Nigel Pearson admits his side proved they are more than capable of defending set-plays after his side kept their first away clean sheet of the season.
Bristol City headed into the game on the back of criticism to defend crosses following the drubbing at Birmingham and the disappointing defeat at home to Millwall in the week. West Brom certainly looked to exploit that fragility but City's defenders rose up to the challenge by being resolute, committed and organised.
They rode their luck at times with the hosts hitting the woodwork on two occasions but City were more than deserving of their victory thanks to a first City goal for Joe Williams and Nahki Wells before the half-time whistle.
