A MacDonald: Played his part in a defensive display which improved after a dodgy start. In the wars in extra time, but thankfully ok. 7

Ihiekwe: Hoodwinked by the dashing Gordon for the opener and compounded it by making an error soon after. But recovered in stetrling fashion. 7

Wood: Difficult opening, but held it together after that and used all his experience. 7

Olosunde. Went close when he cut inside and unleashed a low drive. Took the game to the hosts and enjoyed a milestone moment when he levelled it up. Excellent. 9

Lindsay: Beavered away for the Millers in the middle ground. 7

Smith: Spurned a good chance in the first half. Put himself about well and made life uncomfortable for the hosts and helped set up leveller. Set the tone for the response. 7
