Millwall held to goalless draw by West Brom as Coburn misses crucial chance

Millwall's Josh Coburn had a first-half opportunity to give his team the lead, but he failed to capitalize on it, and the game ended in a goalless draw against West Brom. Coburn, who was recently named Championship Player of the Month, missed a sitter when he steered a Thierno Ballo pass wide from close range. The result sees Millwall move into the top two, but they failed to take full advantage of playing before their promotion rivals. West Brom, meanwhile, extended their unbeaten run to seven games and now have a five-point cushion above the relegation zone. The draw also gives Coventry the opportunity to secure promotion to the Premier League if results go their way on Saturday. The first half belonged to Millwall, with Mihailo Ivanovic hitting the bar, but West Brom improved in the second half. Nathan Patterson made a crucial save to deny Jayson Molumby, and Daniel Imray's intervention prevented Tom Watson from scoring. West Brom's James Morrison expressed his happiness with the result, stating that his team had pushed hard despite having tired legs. Millwall's Alex Neil acknowledged that a point was a good outcome, but his team had enough chances to win the game. Neil emphasized that his team is focused on accumulating as many points as possible and will try to win their remaining four games.
