POST-MATCH | This team seems to be growing - Taylor

Rotherham United boss Matt Taylor praised his side for their attacking intent in front of their own supporters as they saw off the challenge of Queens Park Rangers with a 3-1 win.

The Millers made the early running as Jordan Hugill scored the opener - which marked his first in his new side's colours - before he followed it up with a second half penalty to make it 2-0. The R's got themselves back into the contest with a second half penalty but the game was put to bed by Hakeem Odoffin, who fired home late on to make sure of the points.

Here's what Matt Taylor said after the game:

"I've been saying it for a little while, I feel we've been moving in the right direction. 

"We certainly feel relatively good about ourselves. [It was a] hell of a battle, QPR have got a manager who knows how to get the best out of players and is highly motivating. 

"I thought we stood up to the majority of [their play]. A couple of moments of quality for our goals got us ahead. 

"I want this team to keep being aggressive, hence why we put Conor and Georgie out there. 

"This club isn't a club that sits back. We're in Yorkshire, we're in the North of England, we roll our sleeves up and we face everything we can head on. 

"I can hear a bit of noise in that changing room after the game, which is always a positive. I'm delighted because that team seems to be growing."
