Players line up to pay their respects before kick-off to Fulham legend Jimmy Hill who had recently passed

1-0: After only 6 minutes, Cauley Woodrow found a loose ball through on goal and rounded Lee Grant before slotting into an empty net

1-1: The lead would only last 15 minutes however, as Farrend Rawson slams in a loose ball following a corner in off the bar

2-1: On the stroke of half-time, Cauley Woodrow scored a second to put the Whites ahead once more as he finished Ross McCormack's cross from the right

3-1: Good work from Cauley Woodrow on the right saw his cross turned in by Alex Kačaniklić on the hour mark

4-1: Ross McCormack gets in on the act with a thunderous volley from inside the area following a failed Rotherham clearance won back by a Dan Burn header
