Harrad strikes to earn draw

SHAUN Harrad scored his third goal in as many games to earn Rotherham United a point at Burton Albion this afternoon.

Playing against his former club, the on-loan striker chested in a corner from Sam Wood ten minutes after half time to make it 1-1.

Calvin Zola had given the hosts the lead five minutes before the break when he turned in a low free-kick from home skipper John McGrath.
