QPR winger Bright Osayi-Samuel (right) struck his second goal of the season after a fine solo run
Queens Park Rangers secured a first win in three after beating Rotherham United in a lively encounter at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium.
Ilias Chair fired Rangers ahead via a double deflection but Michael Smith headed in Wes Harding's cross to equalise seven minutes before the break.
However, Bright Osayi-Samuel struck in first-half stoppage time and then Lyndon Dykes added a penalty to give the hosts a 3-1 lead at the break.
The Millers pulled one back with six minutes remaining when substitute Freddie Ladapo nodded in from close range, but the visitors could not find an equaliser.
