The Millers battled hard to earn a point against their third-placed visitors.
Freddie Ladapo and Marcus Harness were on target as Town beat Exeter City 2-0 at St James Park, the Blues’ seventh away win of the season. Ladapo gave Town the lead with a stooping header from a Harness knockdown in the 11th minute, then Harness sealed the three points with a flicked header from a Leif Davis corner on 68.
Rotherham manager Matt Taylor was delighted that his team got something from their 2-2 draw with the Blues at the New York Stadium but always believed they had a chance in the game as they’d looked like they could create opportunities from set pieces.
Boss Kieran McKenna felt the Blues’ 2-2 draw at Rotherham was a mixed night, Town having staged another comeback to lead 2-1 before being pegged back by the Millers in injury time.
Christ Tiehi netted a 91st-minute equaliser to deny the Blues all three points as Town and Rotherham United drew 2-2 at the New York Stadium. Sam Nombe gave the Millers the lead in the fourth minute but skipper Sam Morsy levelled with a brilliant strike on 19. Town looked to have won it when Jack Taylor scored three minutes from the end but Tiehi struck back in injury time to claim a share of the points for the South Yorkshiremen.
