    I thought it was a great performance. You have to respect that Middlesbrough are a very, very good side, but I thought our boys were outstanding. I'm delighted because it's a big one - to get eight points clear of them at this stage of the season is fantastic.

    Boro, down in ninth, remain six points off the top six.

    It was a bit different with me and Jamie Paterson up front. We couldn't go long, we had to try getting the perfect goal and thankfully in the second half we got a couple.

    Bristol City 2-1 Middlesbrough

    But now it's Bristol City who've shown a wee bit of indiscipline, as Korey Smith fouls Adama Traore 30 yards or so away from goal, right in the centre.

    One last chance for the visitors.

    Josh Brownhill very nearly works himself a shooting opportunity 18 yards out, but a Middlesbrough defender gets to him to clear.

    Adama Traore is fouled by Hordur Magnusson the right-hand side and Boro have a chance to throw the ball into the penalty area.

    The Robins, looking to put the game to bed, work Josh Brownhill into space on the edge of the area but his half-volley is well saved at the near post.
