​Huddersfield come from behind to defeat Rotherham

Huddersfield Town have advanced to the third round of the Carabao Cup after defeating Rotherham United 2-1 at the John Smith Stadium.

Fans didn't have time to get to their seats before the Terriers surprisingly went behind as United defender Semi Ajayi headed in a goal inside the first minute.

David Wagner's side responded shortly after half-time when Philip Billing converted from the spot.

Only two minutes later and Huddersfield were ahead, with Joe Lolley finishing off Kasey Palmer's square pass.

Newly promoted Town, who are yet to lose so far this season, will take on Southampton this Saturday at home.
