Millwall drew 1-1 with Ipswich Town on Saturday afternoon in their final pre-season friendly.

The Lions took the lead through Benik Afobe in the first-half when George Honeyman’s pressing meant he forced the visitors into a mistake and Afobe slotted home.

Following that, the South London club nearly made it two when new summer signing Jamie Shackleton’s touch and pass just evaded Benik Afobe at the back post.

After the break, the Lions struggled to gain any momentum in the midfield and the the Tractor Boys subsequently equalised just prior to the hour mark when Ryan Leonard’s tackle deflected into the path of Freddie Ladapo who fired in to the bottom corner.

The visitors were level and had the momentum and would’ve been ahead if not for some super stops by Bart and the woodwork being there.

But it ended 1-1 and Millwall now look forward to their first game of the season against Stoke City next weekend.
