Millwall 1-1 Leeds
Millwall and Leeds are now three points off the play-off places after a hard-fought draw at the New Den.
Millwall defender Paul Robinson scored his first League goal for the club after 17 minutes, bundling the ball home from close range.
But Rob Hulse secured a point for Leeds with a neat turn and shot into the bottom corner 12 minutes from time.
Both sides could have had penalties in the second half, while Millwall's Josh Simpson somehow missed from a yard out.
· Millwall boss Dennis Wise:
"I'm proud of them, they showed a lot of enthusiasm and did extremely well.
"They don't know the game properly yet and need a bit of help but you can expect them to always work hard and they showed what they can do.
"I thought we were hard done by and did enough to win the game but we're still in with a shout."
· Leeds boss Kevin Blackwell:
"This period of the season is not for the faint-hearted and the play-offs is now only a win away.
"We didn't start as well as we have done of late but we were much better in the second half.
"We've come a long way since the start of the season and, form-wise, from November we are second in the league so we had to give it a go."
