The Millers came from behind to beat Championship outfit Bolton Wanderers 2-1 with second-half goals from Alex Revell — his third in two matches — and Daniel Nardiello. Marvin Sordell had given the visitors a half-time lead.
Evans said: "We knew that Bolton would bring a full squad and play with a real purpose and pass it well and move us around and make us work hard.
