I didn’t see any of the game apart from the final score and the Planet swans forum front page. I see Nordfeldt had another stormer. Can someone please sum up?
Great starting XI. Fluid passing. Missing a little cutting edge. Game management by Potter wasn’t great. Failed to find a killer second goal. Silly first pen. Second pen could be questioned. We will play worse this season and win.
Controlled the game and played some lovely football until about the 75th minute. Should have scored a second and it came back to bite us. Incompetent goalkeeping led to the first penalty and the second penalty was Fer - who had his arms up. Young ones did really well and it’ll be a lesson. Nordfeldt, Fer and Potter should have done better.
Two softest penalties you’ll ever see. Bent ref. Useless keeper.
I can't wait to see them again, the first pen for me seemed there was nothing in it, just nordvelt grabbing the ball in the air with the Rotherham player below, the second highly questionable as well, I think it hit fer on the elbows, and it still knocked him for 6..

Nordfelt & Fer (not match fit or sharp) should not have played and Naughton should have been mid field and not RB. Fer was on a yellow and should have been subbed at 45 minutes. The youngsters played their hearts out, Dan was brilliant but most of the time Ollie couldn't get up there with him. When he did he scored a good goal. They put on fresh legs, Potter didn't until the gane was dead & buried at 89 minutes.

And their manager.. Grateful manager Paul Warne thanked for not booing his players before Rotherham United produced one of the fightbacks of the season against Swansea City. The never-say-die Millers won the Championship clash at AESSEAL New York Stadium with two late penalties but had struggled to contained the visitors who led 1-0 at the break through Oli McBurnie. "I thought we were completely outplayed, first half especially," said Warne after his side ended a run of draws and climbed to 18th in the table. "Swansea were quicker, better on the ball. We couldn't contain them really. When we did get the ball, we weren't good enough on it. "In fairness to the fans, I appreciate the fact that the team didn't get booed off at half-time." Ryan Manning kept his nerve to win the game for Rotherham from the spot. He converted from 12 yards in the 79th minute after fellow substitute Jamie Proctor had been felled by goalkeeper Kristoffer Nordfeldt in the box and did the same seven minutes later following Leroy Fer's handball. Warned added: "I think the supporters realise how difficult it is for us in a game like today against a top team. "Swansea were very, very good. Sometimes you have got to hold up your hand and admit the opposition played better. Today was definitely one of those days." Swansea boss Graham Potter said: "Their boy's offside for starters for the first penalty. "The second one, I can see why the referee has given it, although it was harsh. The ball was hit hard and Leroy was very close to it."

Some really nice comments there I especially liked 'Pocket, 'tippy tappy football?' They absolutely outclassed us. If the way they played first half was tippy tappy, I wish the Millers could do the same pal.'

this is the sort of match where VAR would have set things straight... I don't see how in real time you give either of those penalties. the second one... maybe because Fer's hands are up and not watching the ball? but the first one, I can't see how anyone would give that.
