Swindon 2-1 Rotherham

Joe Hungbo's brilliant free-kick sealed Swindon's 2-1 win over nine-man Rotherham.

United's Jili Buyabu was sent off after just four minutes for elbowing Jack Thomson.

Matty Virtue should have netted after Tom Nichols slotted him through, but his tame shot was saved by Julian Eyestone.

Virtue then dragged a low shot wide from distance before Mitch Clark nodded wide at the back stick.

Eyestone then did well to parry a Joe Snowden piledriver from outside the box.

Town went ahead on the stroke of half-time after Thomson's low rocket from 30 yards took a deflection, which wrong-footed Eyestone.

In the 79th minute, Dominic Iorfa was dismissed for a last-man foul on Virtue and from the free-kick, Hungbo bent superbly into the top corner.

United boss Alex Bruce was then sent off for his protests.

A clanger by Connor Ripley gave Rotheram hope after he dropped up a routine cross and Denzel Hall fired home in the 87th minute.

In added time, Sonny Aljofree spurned a simple chance to level against all the odds.
