Millwall Football Club has progressed to the EFL Cup Second Round after beating Queens Park Rangers 2-0 in penalties. The Lions were not at their best throughout the match, especially in a lacklustre first half. However, they improved as the game went on, with Camiel Neghli starting to exert more influence on the game.
What happened?
The match was a back-and-forth affair, with both teams creating chances but neither able to find the back of the net. The Lions were fortunate to take the lead via a strange goal, with Luke Cundle scoring from a yard out after a looping cross from Neghli.
Why it matters for Millwall Football Club
The win is a welcome boost for the Lions ahead of their Championship opener against Bristol City next Saturday. With the team currently 12 points behind leaders Coventry in the title race, every win counts.
What comes next?
