Millwall 3-4 Blackburn: Both sides miss out on reaching the Championship play-offs

A triple Champions League winner and a Manchester United outcast - Sam Allardyce names his best XI
A total of six players from the 68-year-old's spell at Bolton are included, but with only five more spaces up for grabs in the line-up, how many from the likes of West Ham and Newcastle make the cut?
Blackburn 1-1 Luton: Hayden Carter rescues Rovers' play-off hopes with last-gasp equaliser
ADAM SHERGOLD AT EWOOD PARK: Hatters defender Tom Lockyer climbed over several Rovers players to head home Carlton Morris' fiery cross, scoring his third goal of the season.
Who are the WORST interim managers in Premier League history?
The 48-year-old led the team for just four games, since taking over from Antonio Conte, before being dismissed in a 163-word statement on the club website.
Ben Brereton Díaz caps Blackburn comeback as Millwall miss playoffs
Unpack the nice china again. Take the plastic wrapping off the sofa. No doubt some elements of the Premier League and its surrounding machinery will be quietly relieved that after a season of floating inside the top six Millwall will not now be entering the Championship playoffs, that final spot taken by Sunderland on a thrilling final day.
From 3-1 up at half-time and cruising into the playoffs Millwall ended up losing this game 4-3, as Blackburn Rovers produced a fine second half capped by two goals from Ben Brereton Díaz. It made for wonderful drama all the same on a wild, unbound, emotionally gruelling afternoon at the Den, as these two teams played out an end-of-season classic, a game of slick finishes and calamity defending, an unceasing full-body wrestle at the end of a 46-game season that ran to the final four minutes.

- Manager Vincent Kompany talks of ‘memories for life’
- Plymouth and Ipswich win to close on Championship
Burnley clinched the Championship title with a gritty 1-0 win at Blackburn. Vincent Kompany’s men were far from their vintage best in a keenly contested east Lancashire derby but displayed why they are champions with a dogged determination to keep Blackburn out and a moment of magic midway through the second half through Manuel Benson’s sumptuous curling strike.
Benson’s 12th goal of the season – Burnley’s only shot on target – was a strike worthy of winning the league and to do so at the home of their fiercest rivals caps a perfect season for the Clarets, who could still top the 100-point mark.

- Ben Wilson’s controversial goal earns Sky Blues point
- Andy Carroll scores and is sent off as Reading hold Luton
The Coventry goalkeeper Ben Wilson scored a controversial stoppage-time goal to steal a 1-1 draw at Blackburn and boost their Championship playoff chances.
Rovers looked to be strengthening their own top-six ambitions after they led through Sam Gallagher’s first-half goal at Ewood Park. But in the fifth minute of time added on Wilson came forward for a corner and was in the right place at the right time to bundle the ball in, though there were loud appeals for handball that fell on deaf ears.

Genuine contenders run right down to 11th place and Preston are a rare form team outside top three as they head to Millwall
Different protagonists but the same breathless scramble. Gary Rowett struck a chord when, asked whether the Championship’s essence had changed in almost a decade of guiding some of its contenders towards the run-in, he alighted on the perfect descriptor. “It’s pretty much the same,” the Millwall manager began. “You get a lot of different nationalities, styles, different ways people run their clubs. But ultimately ‘carnage’ is probably the one consistent word I would use.”
Rowett has taken Millwall through 41 games of what, for most behind the runaway leaders Burnley, has been the standard rollercoaster ride. They are fifth and holding on in a chase for top-six spots that have come to resemble the hottest of potatoes. The Lions have won only once in their past five games; incredibly that goes for every side between fifth and 13th, except one.

- Blades solid in second while Millwall and Luton draw
- Hull score late equaliser in 4-4 draw at Sunderland
A first-half goal from Iliman Ndiaye gave Sheffield United a crucial 1-0 win against Wigan as they remained on track for automatic promotion. Ndiaye’s eighth-minute strike settled a game full of goalmouth action at Bramall Lane. Wigan remain rooted to the bottom of the table with only six games remaining, while the Blades’ promotion chances were aided when Burnley sealed their place in the Premier League by winning 2-1 at fourth-placed Middlesbrough in the evening match.
Ozan Tufan scored a penalty with the last kick of the match to snatch a point for Hull in a wild 4-4 draw at Sunderland. The hosts trailed 1-0, led 2-1, trailed 3-2 and then led 4-3 in a topsy-turvy contest as they looked set to give their Championship playoff hopes a major boost. But the Tigers left Wearside with a point after Tufan swept home his second goal of the game from the spot in the eighth minute of added time.

Tommy Doyle’s injury-time goal divided the Championship promotion contenders in a classic FA Cup tie
The teams are out at Bramall Lane where it’s quite the atmosphere, bubbling for a Sunday, midday kickoff. That’s what the Cup of Dreams is all about.
Paul Heckingbottom also spoke to the BBC.
There’s not many times you get the opportunity to go to Wembley as a player or as a fan. It would be a reward for the fans, for their support. We know what is at stake. The FA Cup is huge and this season seems to have been a good one and we’ve been involved in a couple of different occasions and stories so it would be nice to have another one. They’ll approach the game the same way as us, what have they got to lose?
