Kasey Palmer bags brace as Luton stay in play-off hunt with win at Rotherham

Luton kept their League One play-off hopes alive with a 2-0 win at relegated Rotherham.

Jack Wilshere’s confident-looking Hatters strolled to victory in South Yorkshire and made it 10 games unbeaten in the process.

It took Luton just eight minutes to go in front and it came following a slick move, with Shayden Morris squaring for Kasey Palmer to lash home.

The Millers, relegated a week ago, offered some threat through youngster Cohen Lee when his powerful volley was blocked by former Rotherham man Hakeem Odoffin.

Jamal Baptiste then drew a great save from Luton goalkeeper Josh Keeley with a stinging effort from the edge of the box.

Palmer doubled the lead on 44 minutes when he met Morris’ cross to clinically nod past Ted Cann.

Rotherham showed more fight in the second half, with Sam Nombe heading over the bar and Jack Holmes seeing his effort kept out by Keeley.

Keeley ensured a clean sheet late on when he denied Dru Yearwood.
