A fourth goal in eight days for Pukki served up further evidence the Finnish international is back to his vibrant, energetic, deadly best.
Rotherham attached a bow to his latest composed finish in the manner their backline parted. But Pukki still had a good 40 yards of grass and plenty of thinking time as Millers’ keeper Viktor Johansson advanced. But in this form the outcome was never in doubt.
His head coach revealed after a Stoke brace ended a five-game barren run his star man had put in the overtime on his finishing at Colney in the week leading upto the Potters’ recent visit.

A few minutes later, Rotherham settled into the contest and began to dominate ball possession. Curtis Nelson planned his tackle on Matt Crooks carefully to extinguish an attack, while English forward Michael Smith tested goalkeeper Dillon Phillips on two occasions.
Looking like the first half would end in a no winner, no vanquished note, Ojo put the visiting team ahead in the 42nd minute thanks to an assist from Harry Wilson.
After battling splendidly at the back, Wilson picked up a loose ball and teed up the 23-year-old through from the halfway line. The English winger of Nigerian descent raced towards goal unopposed before showing first-rate composure to beat goalkeeper Viktor Johansson.
