Mikel’s home debut ends in defeat as Stoke City bow to Bristol City

John Obi Mikel’s home debut ended on a losing note as Stoke City lost 2-0 to Bristol City in Sunday’s Championship game.

The former Chelsea star, who signed for the Potters in August after mutually parting ways with Trabzonspor, made his debut against Millwall.

In the game staged at the Den, the 33-year-old saw every minute of action as Michael O'Neill’s men settled for a 0-0 draw away from home.
