Nottm Forest 1-1 Rotherham

Nottingham Forest's hopes of automatic promotion took a blow as they were held by relegation-haunted Rotherham.

Chris O'Grady gave the Millers a shock ninth-minute lead when he shrugged off a challenge from Forest skipper Ian Breckin to smash home from 20 yards.

Forest equalised on 21 minutes when skipper David Worrell caught Nathan Tyson just inside the box and Grant Holt scored from the resulting penalty.

Kris Commons had a free-kick well saved and was also denied by Worrell late on.
