Derby County 2-0 Hull CityMartyn Waghorn scored a brace for Derby but they still remain outside of the top six thanks to a late goal from Bristol City.

5Lewis Grabban opened the scoring for ForestQueens Park Rangers 3-4 Birmingham CityLee Camp’s injury-time penalty save prevented QPR pulling off an incredible comeback against Birmingham, who held on for a 4-3 win after being four up.Che Adams scored a first-half hat-trick at Loftus Road, where the home side stormed back and would have snatched a point had former Rs keeper Camp not kept out Nahki Wells’ spot-kick.Adams has now scored in six consecutive Sky Bet Championship matches and his treble, plus Harlee Dean’s header, blitzed Rangers before Matt Smith scored just before and after half-time.
5Matt Smith scored two for QPRJordan Cousins’ goal – his first for QPR – with 10 minutes remaining turned up the pressure on Birmingham.And after Craig Gardner was adjudged to have fouled Luke Freeman, Wells had the chance to complete the comeback but was unable to beat Camp.
Rotherham United 1-1 Wigan AthleticStrugglers Rotherham and Wigan had to settle for a point in a 1-1 draw when victory could have done wonders for both sides’ confidence.A point apiece seemed fair in a match which was held up for several minutes following a nasty injury to Wigan skipper and January recruit Danny Fox.Rotherham took advantage of Wigan’s enforced defensive reshuffle with Clark Robertson rising highest to nod them in front on 28 minutes from Will Vaulks’ centre.The visitors responded swiftly with Josh Windass ghosting his way into the box and firing beyond Marek Rodak into the bottom corner for a 32nd-minute leveller.
5Josh Windass scored the equaliser for WiganSheffield Wednesday 0-0 ReadingSheffield Wednesday were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw at home to relegation-threatened Reading.Despite controlling the majority of the contest and creating several chances, the Owls could not break the deadlock in Steve Bruce’s first home game in charge.
Swansea City 1-0 MillwallFollowing a Swansea fans’ protest before kick-off against the running of the club by American duo Steve Kaplan and Jason Levien – with Huw Jenkins resigning as chairman a week ago – they at least restored a degree of pride on the pitch with a much-needed 1-0 win over Millwall thanks to George Byers’ first senior goal.
