While the Tigers have moved level on points with league leaders Cardiff City, a first defeat in three matches has seen Derby stay in 10th place.

Robert Koren fired the hosts into a 25th-minute lead before Michael Jacobs lashed in a spectacular effort from the edge of the box in first-half injury time to level the scores.

The visitors started the second half in positive fashion and they were rewarded on 50 minutes when Abdoulaye Faye headed in from Robbie Brady's delivery.
