Rotherham 0-2 Darlington

Darlington moved back to the top of the table with a convincing win over previously unbeaten Rotherham.

Pawel Abbott started and finished the move to give the visitors an early lead, cleverly sliding the ball home.

Rotherham half-time substitute Mark Newsham almost laid on a goal for Derek Holmes with his first touch but David Stockdale saved well.

Newsham himself almost equalised with a great effort before Darlington substitute Greg Blundell nodded in.
