Penalty shoot-out see’s Lucky Millwall through

 

Millwall got through to the 3rd round after winning a replay against Leeds on penalties,

A dubious 90th minute penalty saved Millwall from crashing out in the first game, and then 2 goals in the final 11 minutes of the replay saved Millwall yet again,

And then it was down to penalties – and despite them missing their first 2 spot-kicks Millwall went on to win 3-2 after E.Bakke missed Leeds’ final penalty,

Heartbroken Leeds fans could not believe it – and now they will have to turn their attentions on to the League – hoping to rise from 12th to a possible play-off position come the end of the season.

Millwall now Face Wolverhampton at home in the 3rd Round.
