Rotherham manager Paul Warne said:

"It's always cruel when you lose in the last few seconds, obviously it's difficult to take and I'm still very raw emotionally about it, as are all the lads in the dressing room.

"But it's even worse when you've played so well, I thought we stopped the switch very well, the lads gave everything physically and we created the best chances.

"We had gilt-edged chances in the second half, and if we don't take them then one goal isn't possibly going to be enough.

"Overall I'm hugely disappointed beyond words really, but I'm also very proud of the way we played."
