Crystal Palace Edge Millwall on Penalties to Reach Carabao Cup Fourth Round

A rivalry shaped by March's FA Cup flashpoint framed the tie.

Overview

  • The third-round tie at Selhurst Park finished 1–1 before Palace won 4–2 on penalties to progress.
  • Substitute Chris Richards put Palace ahead in the 72nd minute and converted his spot kick.
  • Millwall's Ryan Leonard equalised in second-half stoppage time to force the shootout.
  • Goalkeeper Walter Benitez made two saves in the shootout to seal Palace's place in the fourth round.
