Millwall ran out 1-0 winners on Wednesday night in what was a script so many could’ve written before a ball was even kicked.
Over 50 per cent of Millwall’s goals this season have come from set-pieces and so it was no surprise they made use of that against Leeds, with one centre-back Jake Cooper heading the ball back across goal for another in Japhet Tanganga to volley in the only goal.
Aside from that, Millwall were pretty happy to sit back and absorb everything Leeds had to throw at them, with 75 per cent possession only enough to create a handful of decent chances.
Leeds’ wide men Wilfried Gnonto and Dan James were poor almost all night, while the focal point of the attack Joel Piroe also struggled to get into the game.
