City’s Papa John’s Trophy group campaign ended on a disappointing note as our Elite Development Squad lost out at Rotherham.

Brian Barry-Murphy’s young side created several excellent chances while Brazilian teenage forward Kayky came on as a second half substitute to make his club debut.

But five second half goals ensured the spoils went to the Millers, for whom Kieran Sadlier struck a hat-trick, as they made it three wins out of three in Group E

City’s faint hopes of a possible second place finish now rest on the outcome of the final group match between Scunthorpe and Doncaster next month.
