Derby secured a dramatic 3-2 victory over Burton at Pride Park, thanks to Conor Hourihane’s stoppage-time strike.
Despite throwing away a two-goal lead and allowing Joe Hugill to equalize on his Burton debut, Hourihane’s late goal rescued Derby from a potential setback.
The match saw Burton goalkeeper Max Crocombe making key saves, but Derby’s dominance eventually paid off with goals from Tom Barkhuizen and James Collins.
Steve Seddon and Hugill’s goals for Burton posed a threat, but Hourihane’s late heroics sealed the win for Derby.
