First-half goals from Rhian Brewster, Ben Brereton Diaz and Bobby Clark were added to by Patrick Agyemang and Lars-Jorgen Salvesen as the rampant Rams recorded a third win in four games. Closure of the M5 throughout the afternoon caused traffic to become gridlocked in and around Bristol, causing some City players to arrive less than half an hour before kick-off. But it seemed the whole team had failed to turn up as Derby capitalised on wretched defending to build a commanding half-time lead. The Rams were creating almost all the chances as Brereton Diaz headed narrowly wide following a 32nd-minute corner. But Derby continued to dominate and the fourth goal came in the 66th minute when Agyemang comprehensively outjumped George Tanner to head in.
