Derby 1–1 Millwall: Own Goals At Both Ends As Late Equaliser Denies Fourth Straight Win

The draw halted Millwall’s three‑match surge to offer Derby a timely lift after recent home setbacks.

Overview

  • Both goals were own goals at Pride Park, with Derby salvaging a 1-1 draw against Millwall.
  • Matt Clarke put Millwall ahead with an 81st‑minute header into his own net before Jake Cooper did the same in the 88th minute to level.
  • The result denied Alex Neil’s side a fourth consecutive victory and the chance to close the gap on promotion rivals such as Middlesbrough.
  • Derby head coach John Eustace praised his team’s character and singled out the substitutes’ impact as excellent.
  • Returning from a hamstring issue, substitute Rhian Brewster added spark off the bench, creating a chance for Lars-Jorgen Salvesen and going close from range, while a small Millwall away following of about 820 contributed to a subdued atmosphere.
