Millwall Held By Leicester
Friday, 24th Apr 2026 22:28

Town’s automatic promotion rivals Millwall were held to a 1-1 draw by already relegated Leicester City at the King Power Stadium this evening.

The night might have been even worse for the Lions with Macaulay Langstaff netting a 90th minute equaliser after Harry Souttar had given the Foxes the lead on 78.

Millwall move above the Blues into second place by a point, but with Town having two games in hand on the South Londoners, who now have just one remaining fixture, at home to Oxford United next Saturday.

Given their superior goal difference, the Blues need only four points from their last three games to secure their return to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

I thought Leicester may hold on for the 3 points, but the last few subs didn't have the passion of the earlier players... Millwall looked like they've settled for playoffs... Les hope we don't bottle it tomorrow.....

West Brom have been a bit of a bogey side at their place in recent years, let's hope we're totally fired up to end that jinx,once and for all.

Well I stand corrected. I said on here that we couldn't rely on Leicester. Seems the wounded foxes kept the lions at bay.

And I'm one of those that didn't watch it, got other things to do. Knew the result an hour and a half ago though. Pretty much as I expected as a post I put earlier this evening backs up. Been saying that Leicester would take something off Millwall. So, now it's a max of 4 points from 3 games. Frankly if we can't do that from what's left, we'll not deserve the autos.

We don’t all have the luxury you bestow upon yourself! Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control ( not your problem I accept) I actually didn’t know so was very pleased that Phil & his team were at their usual informational best to deliver the news to me & probably many many others you selfish person!

Itfc2024 -what a rude and self centred comment. Believe or not, TWTD is read by more than just you.

I watched the game, but visited TWTD after as I was hoping Phil would post something, given I enjoy reading the comments as to get other people’s perspective.

Thought Leicester rode their luck a bit, but will take the draw as it means one win and a draw should be enough to get us over the line. Really think we need to beat West Brom, as I don’t fancy us against a Southampton side with something to play for.

Its good we're focused on ourselves and not everyone else. But its also good to remember that everyone around us also feels the pressure and buckles under it.

Lets get that win tomorrow and then the pressure really is all on the Saints to stay in it on Tuesday.

I'm with you Armchaircritic, always fancied Leicester to take something from that game. Millwall will have to change their song soon, I'm becoming quite fond of them! A point from the next 2 games should set up a big Portman Road party next weekend!

You'd never rely on Leicester but once relegation was confirmed, all that pressure and uncertainty was lifted from them. It was always going to be an unpredictable one.

I think WB today are breathing a sigh of relief, any more than that 2 point deduction and they'd be fired up and full of injustice but it being exactly 2 points means they are staying up. Even if we win today I think they'll be safe. [Oxford would have to beat Shef Wed and Milwall and turn around a 6 goal GD gap (7 given they've scored fewer goals). That alone won't happen.]

I can see this being a good day but a draw would suit both sides. That would mean we could have a shot to nothing against Southampton and a party at Portman Road.

I just found out from this post. Didn't realise the Leicester game was last night. You just never know on football. Leicester wanting to wound others like a wounded tiger.
