Millwall suffered their first Championship league defeat of the new campaign as they lost 2-0 against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.
The damage was done in the first twenty-two minutes after Iliman Ndiaye put the hosts ahead after seven minutes before Sander Berge doubled the Blades lead in the 22nd minute.
Bartosz Bialkowski kept the Lions in it when he saved Oli Norwood’s penalty just before half time.
Millwall came out like a different side in the second half and were unlucky not to pull a goal back when efforts from Mason Bennett and Scott Malone were blocked.
Malone cut back on the left hand side and his strike look destined for the top corner but for a great bit of defending before Bennett’s strike was blocked inside the box.
Millwall continued to try and force their way back into the game but couldn’t quite muster up that goal that would’ve made the game very interesting going into the final ten minutes.
The Lions face Coventry next weekend at The Den and will be looking to get back to winning ways.
MOTM – GEORGE SAVILLE – The Lions midfielder worked so hard in the midfield.
