The decision enraged Millers players and staff alike, and intentions to appeal were signalled swiftly after the final whistle.<\/p>\n<p>With 10 men, Rotherham struggled to contain the visitors and Middlesbrough soon levelled proceedings. George Saville latched on to a delivery from Neeskens Kebano, and his thunderous strike rendered Millers goalkeeper Viktor Johansson helpless.<\/p>\n<p>Jonny Howson then came agonisingly close to edging Middlesbrough ahead, but his effort from 20 yards rattled the crossbar and Yannick Bolasie\u2019s follow-up also hit the woodwork.<\/p>\n<p>Middlesbrough, managed by former Millers boss Neil Warnock, eventually took the lead through Chuba Akpom, who provided a neat finish beyond Johansson just ten minutes into the second-half.<\/p>\n<p>The disadvantaged home side failed to find an equaliser but did go close through Freddie Ladapo. The forward volleyed over the crossbar after the ball was headed into his path by Michael Ihiekwe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themillers.co.uk\/news\/2021\/april\/freeview--the-sending-off-turned-the-game---warne\/\">Speaking to iFollow Millers<\/a>, Rotherham manager Paul Warne said: \u201cWe have to lick our wounds, it\u2019s going to hurt for a bit, it\u2019s definitely going to hurt me for a bit and it\u2019s going to hurt the players.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t think it was a red card, I thought it looked head-to-head.
