Ratings: A handful of 7s for Rotherham United players against Bristol City, but no win sadly

Johansson: Protected well in first half in particular. On his toes more in second half. No chance with Conway strike. 6

Lembikisa: One surging early run set the tone. Bell was more of a force in second half. 6

Peltier: A welcome returnee in the backline. Organised well and got an hour in the tank. 7

Blackett: Showed confidence early on. Will have been pleased to have Peltier alongside him. His first goal in England should have yielded a leveller, but alas. 7

Bramall: The game’s stand-out player in the first half and posed City real problems going forward. 7

Tiehi: Did the unfussy, necessary stuff pretty well. 7

Cafu: Operated in an advanced role in a 4-2-1-3 which worked nicely for spells. Got just over an hour on his first-team return. 6

Rathbone: Tigerish, workaholic...Typical Rathbone. 7

Green: Had his moments. So close to scoring in the first half. 6

Hugill: Posed issues with his physicality as he does. 7

Onyedinma: Headed one decent chance over in first half and another in the second. 6

Substitutes: Hall (Peltier 62). A first appearance of the season after injury. 6

Clucas (Cafu 62), 6.

Nombe (Hugill 74), 6.

Revan (Bramall 80), 6.

Appiah (Green 80), 7. Assist for goal.

Not used: Phillips, Eaves, Kelly, McGuckin.
