Bury 2 - 1 Rotherham

Bury   2 - 1   Rotherham

Bury 2-1 Rotherham

Bury substitute Richie Baker scored a late winner to complete a thrilling fightback for the Shakers, who have won six of their last eight games.

Kevin Ellison put Rotherham ahead with an inswinging cross that crept in at the near post before Ryan Lowe equalised with a 12-yard strike.

Andy Nicholas was penalised for a foul on Lowe but Andy Warrington saved Stephen Dawson's subsequent penalty.

But he could not stop Baker from poking home a deflected shot.

Rotherham United manager Ronnie Moore tells BBC Radio Sheffield:

"It was frustration more than anything. Trying to put your finger on it as a manager is hard.

"First-half to play like we did we've had enough chances in the game first half, the game should have been dead and buried.

"Second-half, we did the talking but when we came onto the park, we don't do the things we were supposed to do."
