Millwall 2-2 Wolves

All four of Lee Gregory's goals for Millwall this season have come at The Den

Millwall came from behind to claim a draw as Championship leaders Wolves failed to win in the capital for the third time this season.

Wolves old boy Jed Wallace's fast break and pass set up Lee Gregory to put Millwall in front on 17 minutes.

Recalled Helder Costa then set up Diogo Jota's first-half injury time equaliser before supplying the pull-back for Romain Saiss' 25-yard strike.

But Jake Cooper levelled with a close-range header on 72 minutes.

Wolves failed to deal with a far-post corner, as Shaun Hutchinson was allowed to direct a looping header back across goal and Cooper got there first to bundle in a header.

Nuno Espirito Santo's pacesetters are now eight points clear at the top, having won eight times in a 10-match unbeaten run since losing to QPR at Loftus Road in late October - and they were also held to a goalless early season draw at Brentford.

Wolves had not conceded a goal in four matches prior to kick-off.

But, in an entertaining Boxing Day game, chances flowed at either end and Millwall, who boast one of the best home records in the bottom half of the Championship, had already gone close before Gregory's opener.

Having seen the game turned round in the space of 11 minutes either side of half-time, Neil Harris' Lions had the fight and strength of character to claw back another point on a ground where they have lost just three times in 12 matches this season.

But Wolves were close to claiming all three points in the third minute of stoppage time when home keeper Jordan Archer pushed away a Barry Douglas free-kick.

Millwall manager Neil Harris:

"Against good teams, if you switch off you're going to get punished. We switched off about three times, probably, in 90 minutes.

"We gave it a right go and our second goal was well earned. I'm really pleased with a point - no one was short-changed in the crowd, that's for sure.

"It was an excellent game of football, end to end. In some ways David Livermore - my assistant - summed it up when he said 'that's a Millwall performance'."

Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo:

"It's not an indifferent result, 2-2 against Millwall away from home. I knew that Millwall would be like they were.

"They've got 21 of their 27 points at home. It's a tough environment to play in. We showed a lot of character and we can be proud of ourselves.

"I enjoyed my first experience of playing on Boxing Day. We are professionals. We are ready to play in every game, every day."

Diogo Jota's equaliser at The Den was his 10th goal of the season
