Full-Time from the Den!

MILLWALL 2 - 1 LEYTON ORIENT

Orient were more lively in the 2nd half however the Lions had control still early on and the substitution on the 61st which saw Gary Alexander come on for Chris Hackett helped lead towards the first goal, when the ball wasn't dealt with properly by the Orient defense and found its way to the Lions captain who gave his side the lead on the 69th minute!
Orient brought on some more attacking players who created some minor problems but the Lions just kept charging and when Scott Barron was brought down inside the box by Adam Chambers on the 80th minute, the Lions were awarded a penalty, which Steve Morison converted to bag his 20th goal of the season!
The game wasn't over yet though and Orient pressed hard in the last few minutes, a foul by Darren Ward in extra time led to a free kick for Orient and went out for a corner, which Orient took quickly and Ben Chorley shot it into the back of the net. The last minute was more nervy for the the Lions than it had to be but the Lions finished on top, taking a vital three points.
COME ON THE LIONS!!!!

MILLWALL 0 - 0 LEYTON ORIENT

Millwall have given the home fans a wonderful display in the first half of this London derby, the fans having plenty to cheer about even with that all important goal still just eluding the Lions. Millwall have controlled and dominated most of the first half, spending most of their time in the Orient half. Neil Harris having some really good chances but the ball slipping just wide or just over! It has been fairly comfortable for the boys and they really do deserve a goal out of their first half efforts. Some stunning link up between Hackett, Schofield and Harris has seen the Lions creating the better of the chances. Although Orient have had some chances to get forward, you never felt there was really any danger, the Millwall defence dealing with it comfortably.
Millwall have to collect the three points today to stay in the running for automatic promotion with Leeds 2-1 up at home to the MK Dons. The Lions are creating enough chances for themselves, they just need to keep doing what they're doing and there is little doubt they can take this one all the way.
COME ON YOU LIONS!!!!! MILLWALL MILLWALL MILLWAAAAAALLLLLLLLL!!!

Full - Time form Huish Park

Millwall snatched a last minute equaliser at Huish Park through Jonathan Obika on the 90th minute, the first longball into the box all night from the Lions resulting in the goal, displaying just part of the Lions' problems all night.
The promotion seeking Lions put in a lack lustre performance and it felt as is if the team barely showed up. Yeovil dominated much of the play, although Millwall seemed to be pushing their own self-destruct button making the most basic of errors and failing to keep hold of the ball for any real periods. Jackett made all 3 subs fairly early on, Scott Barron replacing Liam Trotter (46th), Obika replacing Harris (53rd) and Chris Hackett replacing Shaun Batt (68th). The Lions only started to create any real chances in the last 10-15minutes of the game, far too little, far too late. The Lions have been humbled tonight. Thoroughly shocking and utterly disappointing from the Millwall side.
Millwall defender Alan Dunne said afterwards that the boys didn't show what they were capable of tonight and that it was a waste of 3 points. He went on to say that there is no reason the boys can't grab the 3 at Huddersfield on Friday night, although Huddersfield haven't lost at home all season requiring the lads to be on top form and that it was vital they return to winning ways as soon as possible. He hopes to make a return to the squad for the Orient game.

Half - Time from Huish Park

YEOVIL 1 -0 MILLWALL

Millwall took control in the early minutes but Yeovil fought back strong and started to caused the Lions some problems. It is the first time in a long while that the Lions have looked uncomfortable.
As they continued to pile on the pressure it was Yeovil who took first blood, a defensive error by Darren Ward allowing Dean Bowditch to put one in the net on the 26th minute. This unsettled the Lions further, and it was only some fantastic defensive work that saved the Lions any further upsets.
As the first half progressed further the Lions seemed to settle slightly with some squandered chances for both Morison and Batt. The Lions have succeeded in more than one comeback this season and there is real belief that they can still get something from the game. The Lions need to score one, level things back up so they can relax a little; but Yeovil aren't going to give up easily and it is going to be a battle.

GOAL

YEOVIL 1-0 Millwall

Yeovil open the scoring, a Darren Ward mistake allowed Dean Bowditch to knock one home on the 26th minute. The Lions need to come back now.
COME ON YOU LIONS!

Full-Time from the Den!

MILLWALL 4 - 0 GILLINGHAM

What a game!!! The Lions just couldn't stop scoring with goals from Shaun Batt, Tony Craig, Danny Schofield and Neil Harris see the Lions 4-0 winners and up to 2nd and into the automatic promotion spots!
The Lions, a thoroughly dominant side today, the Gills never really being allowed into the game. It took the Lions a little while to get into the 2nd half, but a lone attempt from Schofield resettled the side and a lovely header from Harris saw the Lions 4 to the good.
Millwall fans were slightly disappointed not to see even the briefest appearance from Gary Alexander who has been in full training after not seeing the pitch since October. It would appear that manager Kenny Jackett was more mindful of resting certain players ready for their trip to Yeovil on Tuesday night though.

Gillingham substitution

Gillingham central defender Garry Richards is being taken off after a nasty collision in his own goal, he went down heavily, but is up and hobbling down the tunnel now.
With their only central defender substitute already being used to replace Dennehey, Mark Bentley has had to come on as a replacement for the injured Richards. It's a knock back for the Gills so early into the 2nd half.

2nd Half Kicks Off

Neil Harris has come on for Steve Morison to prevent Morison getting any further yellow cards!!
Gillingham defender Darren Denehey has come off at half time after a knock in the 1st half, being replaced by Josh Gowling.

Half - Time from the Den

MILLWALL 2 –0 Gillingham

The Lions have thoroughly dominated, unusually playing towards the Cold Blow Lane End in the 1st half after losing the toss.

A good solid performance from the Lions and some lovely work between Trotter and Schofield setting Batt up for the 1st goal, a stunning low shot that slipped straight past the Gillingham keeper. It was the first time that Julian had really been tested in the Gills goal. The second came just minutes after, a long throw from Morison was not properly dealt with and Tony Craig lobbed it over the defense and keeper and straight into the back of net to bag his 2nd of the season.

The Gills did get a chance minutes before half-time, Simeon Jackson getting a shot off on target but he was unable to beat Lions keeper David Forde.

Full-Time

Colchester 1 – 2 MILLWALL

The early goalkeeping error gave Millwall an uphill struggle in the 2nd half with Colchester equalising on the 50th. It took a little while for the Lions to regain themselves and some well chosen substitutions and building pressure finally paid off for the Lions as they forced an own goal on the 78th minute to retake their earlier lead.

Millwall came to life after the 2nd goal, however with just the goal between them the game wasn’t over yet (until the twat in the black blew the whistle). Colchester came back with an almost immediate chance but their frustration was starting to show.

It has been a fully charged game with both teams playing their heart out and a fair number of yellow cards being shown to both sides. The last 10 minutes have not been easy for Lions fans everywhere with a few incidents and a few near misses for Colchester. The Lions kept the pressure on though and Obika had a few chances himself although he wasn’t able to put away. In the end it didn’t matter and Millwall took the win. Millwall fans and the team and staff are absolutely ecstatic at the Community Stadium

Both teams had it all to play for today, Millwall after a draw to Brentford and Colchester after a dismal 2-0 defeat at Exeter on Good Friday, the win was a must for both teams today. The loss today leaves Colchester in 7th, just outside the play-offs level on points with 6th place Huddersfield who host Oldham tomorrow. The win takes Millwall to 2nd reliant on Swindon’s result later today! Lions fans everywhere will be praying for a loss or draw for Swindon this afternoon when they host Tranmere!

COME ON YOU LIONS!!!!

GOAL

COLCHESTER 1 – 1 Millwall

 

A woeful goalkeeping error by Millwall keeper David Forde has let Colchester slip in the equaliser just minutes after the second half kicks off. A gift of a goal handed to Kevin Lisbie on the  50th minute.

Millwall have their work cut out for them now.

Half-time

Fairly even first half with chances at both ends. There wasn’t much to separate the teams for much of the first half, Millwall’s chances increasing towards the end with the pressure finally culminating in another blinder from Steve Morison on the 43rd.

Second half just kicked off!

GOAL!!!!!!

Colchester 0 – 1 MILLWALL

Steve Morison bangs it into the back of the net on the 43rd minute to give the Lions the lead just before half time! That totals 19 this season for the Millwall player!
