A Matthew Mills header on the stroke of half time has ensured that Nottingham Forest go in level against Rotherham United at the City Ground.
The home side could have taken the lead inside the opening two minutes when Jamie Ward set off on a mazy run that culminated in a low shot that was saved by Kelle Roos.
Chris Maguire then curled a 25-yard free kick inches wide of Dorus de Vries's goal for the visitors, before they took the lead through Danny Collins.
Collins, who spent three seasons at the City Ground and made over 70 appearances for the Reds, rose highest to nod home a corner on 13 minutes.
Chris Burke thought that he had levelled the tie just before the half-hour mark when he bundled home from close range, only to see his effort ruled out for offside.
Jordan Bowery saw his long-range effort saved by de Vries as half time approached, before Mills headed home from a late corner.
