Millwall secured a crucial 3-1 win over Stoke at the bet365 Stadium, reclaiming the second spot in the Championship and guaranteeing a play-off position. The match saw Camiel Neghli score the opening goal in the first half, followed by Femi Azeez's ninth goal of the season in the 55th minute. Although Stoke briefly reduced the deficit with an own goal, Josh Coburn sealed the win for Millwall with a 69th-minute strike. This victory lifted Millwall three points above third-placed Ipswich, while Stoke's fading season continues with only two wins in their last 10 games.
The Potters had given first starts to academy duo Pijus Otegbayo and Syd Agina, but it was Millwall who capitalized on their chances, with Neghli and Azeez leading the charge. The win marks a significant achievement for Millwall, who now have their sights set on the next two games as they fight for automatic promotion.
