IRELAND U21 INTERNATIONAL Ryan Manning produced a man-of-the-match display on his home debut for Rotherham United, as his side suffered a 3-2 loss to Hull City in the Championship.
The Galway native, who recently moved to Rotherham on a on a season-long loan from QPR, supplied an assist for Richard Wood’s 16th minute goal from a corner.
That score gave Rotherham the lead but Hull responded through Jackson Irvine on 28 minutes before Fraizer Campbell edged Hull in front on the stroke of half-time.
Irvine struck again shortly after the restart to give the Tigers a two-goal cushion, and while Jamie Proctor found the net to bring Rotherham back into the contest, Hull managed to hold on and secure the victory.
