Millwall v Sheffield United
Chance for Sharp
as Gordon’s cross from the right gives him a chance to peel off and hit it first time on the volley - but he’s leaning back and can’t keep it down
Goal Millwall
and it’s that man Cooper who scores again against the Blades - rising highest to get his head to a back-post free-kick given away by Norrington-Davies and the home side lead at The Den just after the hour mark
Nervy moment
as a shot slips through Foderingham’s grasp, Millwall can’t quite force it over the line and it remains goalless
Almost a freak opener
for the Blades as Jack Robinson’s mishit cross arrows towards the Millwall goal, Bialkowski tips it over and it’s a corner to the Blades - it’s played short, Ndiaye mishits his pass terribly and Millwall break, which ends when Baldock brings down his man cynically just outside his own area and gets booked
Ndiaye sees yellow
for shoving Malone in the chest after he wiped out Baldock near the right touchline, Hourihane takes the resulting free-kick but curls it right on top of the Millwall net
Egan gets up highest
at the back post to head Hourihane’s cross goalwards, but it’s easy for Bialkowski in the home goal to cling on to
Concern for the Blades
as Baldock goes down for some treatment, young Joe Starbuck must have been wondering if it was his time from the bench - but after some treatment, Baldock is up and carries on for now
Free-kick Millwall
as Hourihane is adjudged to have fouled Saville, Wallace takes the free-kick in a good position ... and it’s a cross/shot by the looks of things that just evades everyone in the middle and bounces wide of Foderingham’s goal
