Rotherham enjoyed a stellar afternoon as they hammered Reading 4-0 at the New York Stadium in the Sky Bet Championship on Saturday.
The Millers blew Paul Ince’s side away in the first half, racing into a 3-0 lead after only 18 minutes and adding a fourth before the break.
Reading goalkeeper Joe Lumley had an afternoon to forget as, after Richard Wood headed the hosts in front, he allowed Conor Washington to score from an acute angle, then let Jamie Lindsay’s weak shot through his hands before being beaten to the ball by Irish international Chiedozie Ogbene, who finished into an empty net. His second goal is as many league games.
