Bristol City's Jamie Paterson curls against the bar in their goalless Championship draw at Rotherham

Bristol City went a fourth game without a Championship win after being held to a goalless draw at Rotherham.

The home side were on top for much of the first half, but it was the visitors who thought they had taken the lead when Famara Diedhiou swept home only for it to be ruled offside.

Just after the break, Rotherham's Joe Newell picked out an unmarked Michael Smith who could only head over.

City twice hit the woodwork in the second half, with Marley Watkins prodding against the post from close range before fellow substitute Jamie Paterson curled against the bar from 20 yards.

A draw means Lee Johnson's side avoid a third successive away defeat and it leaves them 10th, just one point outside the play-off places.

Paul Warne's Millers remain 19th, four points clear of the relegation zone.
