RICHARDSON: WE WILL GIVE IT A GO

Millers lifted by Cafu goal

- Steve Pieters

LEAM Richardson pledged his Rotherham will not “roll over” in their relegation battle after they were denied a rare away win by a late Middlesbrough equaliser.

The Millers had taken a 59th-minute lead when Cafu finished brilliantly after he was played in behind the defence by former Boro striker Jordan Hugill.

But Rotherham’s hopes of a first away win since November 2022 were dashed when Marcus Forss equalised with eight minutes remaining.

Rotherham, who have only won one of their last 16 matches, are eight points shy of safety.

Head coach Richardson, who took over before Christmas, said: “I feel a little bit pleased with our structure, the competitive nature and the account we have given of ourselves.
