Highlights of the Sky Bet League One match between Rotherham and Blackpool.

Revitalised Rotherham dealt a blow to Blackpool's play-off hopes by netting a late winner in a 2-1 victory at New York Stadium.

Joe Rafferty's 90th-minute goal handed Matt Hamshaw a second victory in charge of the Millers following Steve Evans' dismissal.

Rotherham took a 26th-minute lead with skipper Hakeem Odoffin slamming in after Mallik Wilks had been denied at close-range by goalkeeper Harry Tyrer.

Blackpool head coach Steve Bruce made a treble change at the break and one of them, Jake Beesley, had a good chance to level but he lashed wide on the half-volley.

Cameron Dawson was then called into action by Sonny Carey's effort from the edge of the box and Sammy Silvera's dangerous cross evaded everyone.

Blackpool levelled with an 81st-minute penalty after James Husband was caught by Liam Kelly and Carey stepped up to beat Dawson.
