Millwall boss Alex Neil was delighted with his side's performance after they sealed their fourth consecutive Championship victory with a 1-0 win against struggling Leicester City.

The Lions boss told BBC Radio London post-match: "I think we deserved to win the game. I thought over the piece, we carried the bigger threat.

"They're naturally going to have their moments; they are a good side, they have good players.

"I think once the first goal went in - we spoke about it half-time - it was always going to be about the next one.

"We had that opportunity with the penalty, it doesn't go in and it makes that next 20 to 25 minutes really tough because you need to dig in.

"The lads have been brilliant, right across pre-season and building into this. Even when we've had a set-back or two, they always respond, they always react, they're an unbelievable group to work with so, yeah, I feel very privileged at the moment."
