Maximillian Aarons has scored two goals this season

Teemu Pukki scored his 11th league goal of the season as Norwich City came from behind to beat Rotherham and go back to the top of the Championship.

The Millers took an early lead when Richie Towell scored on the rebound after Will Vaulks' initial shot had been blocked.

The promotion chasers levelled after the break when Todd Cantwell scored his first goal in professional football from Pukki's pullback.

Teenager Maximillian Aarons put Norwich in front with a header from Cantwell's through ball before Pukki wrapped up the win from close range.

The Canaries had been knocked off top spot earlier in the day after Leeds beat Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.

Rotherham are without an away win all season and Daniel Farke's Norwich were ultimately good value for their 12th league win of the campaign.

Pukki's late goal, from Marco Stiepermann's pass, was the Finn's 15th for club and country in 2018-19 and lifted the hosts five points clear of third-placed Middlesbrough.

Norwich host struggling Bolton next Saturday, while Rotherham travel to South Yorkshire rivals Sheffield Wednesday.

Norwich head coach Daniel Farke:

"It was a difficult start for us today and it was then important that we showed the right mentality, especially after the draw at Hull in midweek.

"I was delighted with the way the team responded. For the first 25 minutes it was tough but for the next 65 minutes I thought we were brilliant going forward and at the back we didn't allow them a single chance.

"In the end I think it was a well deserved win and I think we could easily have scored five of six goals with all the chances we created."

Rotherham boss Paul Warne:

"In the end I thought Norwich deserved the win - they created enough chances to have won the game comfortably.

"But we got a good set-piece goal to go ahead early on and it could have been easily have been 2-0 (when Will Vaulks hit the post).

"We gave a good, well coached side a few problems but we lost a couple of players to injury and in the second half they dominated the game, although I thought we should have done a lot better with their second and third goals. At 2-1 down with 15 minutes to go I still fancied getting something from the game, but the third goal killed us."
