Rotherham moved back into the League Two automatic promotion places with victory over Accrington Stanley.
The visitors had the better of the first half, Ian Craney blasted wide in the first minute and Terry Gornell also went close.
The host's went ahead when loanee Liam Henderson, who played for Watford reserves on Monday, forced the ball towards Omar Daley who slotted home.
Adam Le Fondre's low drill secured the home side's victory in added time.
