Blackburn Rovers claimed a valuable 2-1 away victory at The Den, defeating Millwall to boost their own playoff aspirations. Millwall took an early lead, capitalizing on a defensive error to score from close range. Blackburn responded well and equalized before halftime with a cleverly worked free-kick. The winner came in the 65th minute, a powerful header from a corner that gave the Millwall goalkeeper no chance. Despite late pressure from the hosts, Blackburn held firm to take all three points. The win moves Rovers into the top six, while Millwall's inconsistent form sees them drift further from the promotion picture.
