Blackburn manager John Eustace speaking to BBC Radio Lancashire after the 1-0 defeat at Millwall:

"I thought it was a really good afternoon for both teams. Conditions were very tough and the way the boys battled today was very pleasing. It is something we do week in week out and obviously disappointing to concede in the last minute.

"Obviously it was disappointing to lose [Lewis] Travis with 10, 15 minutes to go but I still felt very comfortable. I didn't think they would score and I thought the way the boys defended was excellent.

"It looks like Lewis has done his hamstring so we will have to get a scan on that tomorrow and Harry Pickering took a blow to his knee so we will have to have a look at that too.

"We played some good football today. We had two or three good chances in the second half which we didn't take. Overall I thought a draw was a fair result.

"I am proud of the efforts in the first half of the season and the run we have been on has been terrific. A lot of hard work has gone into it but there is going to be a lot of hard work going into the second half of the season."
