Doncaster Rovers fought from 1-0 down at home to Rotherham United to win 2-1 yesterday.
Jake Hastie gave the Millers the lead at half-time but goals from the evergreen James Coppinger and Ben Whiteman gave the hosts all three points at the Keepmoat Stadium.
Donny are now 7th in League One after three wins from five and started well to life under Darren Moore.
Moore was full of praise for his side yesterday, as per a report by the Doncaster Free Press: “We don’t plan on going a goal down – we want to go a goal up and keep the momentum. But when we find ourselves a goal down, they’ve got the mental capacity to reset their mind and have that belief to continue to keep going.”
“They’ve shown that belief again today. We work honestly and openly during the week and it’s always nice when what you’ve worked on in the week you see it being put into practice on a Saturday and you come through and get the win off them.”
“There is a good team spirit and a good camaraderie among the players, the staff at the football club. We’ll just keep working and trying to improve each week.”
He added: “It was another tough game, a typical local derby. I thought that Rotherham came and set their stall out early. They nullified us and made it very difficult for us.”
