BREAKING: Fan Furious Reaction To Play-Off leaves Coach in ..
The Blues will play either Sheffield United or Swansea City in the Final after Junior Dixon’s double (one in the second half of extra time) gave The Blues the lead against The Lions in the first half. Early on, Millwall’s opponents were able to trap Millwall as Birmingham attempted to control the ball.
However, on minute 22, George Walker’s persistent work allowed the ball to be moved into the opposition penalty area, where Abdulmalik took control and found space to score the first goal by shooting past the goalkeeper’s helpless attempt.
Following that, the Lions had a period of possession but were unable to capitalize on their superiority, allowing Birmingham’s Dixon to equalize just before halftime.
Both sides had opportunities in the second half, with Millwall’s Tom Leahy having the best of them, but the full-time whistle meant that the outcome would have to be determined over the course of an additional half-hour.
A corner kick later, Dixon found himself unmarked at the back post and nodded home beyond Dillon Addai to give Birmingham the lead with penalty kicks imminent
After the match, the Professional Development League South Division trophy was given to Millwall’s Under 21 team.
