    Mark Wilkins: The longer this goes on the more it feels like Cahill's going to come on and remind us why he was such a hero in South London!

    Paul Hopkins: Come on City we can get one

    Which way is this one going?

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Cardiff, having been second best and soaking up pressure for most of the second half, are having a decent spell.

    The Millwall defence is having to deal with several long throws from the right and get stuck into challenges in the air and on the deck.

  8. GREAT SAVE!published at 66 mins

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Another brilliant save from Cardiff keeper Neil Etheridge to keep his side in the game.

    Jed Wallace strikes low across goal from 18 yards, and Etheridge scrambles down to his left to get a hand to that, before recovering to claim it.

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    It's actually Cardiff who threaten first, as Nathaniel Mendez-Laing attempts an acrobatic effort in the area.

    However, he doesn't connect properly and the ball drops kindly for Lions keeper Jordan Archer.

    Then Mendez-Laing sends a header at goal which is a straightforward save.

    Replays show his initial effort did strike James Meredith's arm, but it was from point blank range. No penalty.

    There haven't been too many clear-cut openings so far in the second half.

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Millwall striker Lee Gregory comes close to getting a second goal of the evening, but heads Jed Wallace's cross wide of the goal.

    At the other end, Gary Madine chests down a ball forward and fires off a half-volley, but it is wayward.

  13. GREAT SAVE!published at 56 mins

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    A crucial save from Cardiff keeper Neil Etheridge, as Ben Marshall cuts in from the left and shoots low towards the near post.

    His effort takes a deflection off Bruno Ecuele Manga and the keeper has to be quick to get down to his right and turn it behind.

    The corner comes to nothing.

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Cardiff come forward and Junior Hoilett feeds the ball in to Joe Ralls on the edge of the area, but the midfielder miscues his effort.

    The visitors recycle the ball and Hoilett centres again.

    This time striker Gary Madine - who's had a quiet night so far - has a shot blocked by Shaun Hutchinson.

  15. Postpublished at 50 mins

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Cardiff left-back Joe Bennett had to be alert to get back and make a clearance from in front of Jed Wallace, as Lee Gregory gets to a loose ball and pulls it back from the byline.

    Bennett was caught by the midfielder and needs a spot of treatment, but he'll be fine to continue.

  16. Postpublished at 47 mins

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Millwall defender Mahlon Romeo has a difficult start to the second half.

    He takes down a ball forward on the edge of his own area and Junior Hoilett menaces him and picks his pocket again.

    The right-back manages to recover and clear, but he must have had flashbacks to the opening goal.

  17. KICK-OFFpublished at 20:49 Greenwich Mean Time 9 February 2018

    Millwall 1-1 Cardiff

    Cardiff get the second half started in south east London.

    If it stays like this, Tim Cahill will be licking his lips in anticipation of a late introduction from the bench.

    The veteran Australian scored for Millwall's under-23s in midweek and must be itching to get out there.

    Which cult heroes do you want to return?

    Simon Atkins: Would love to see Olivier Tebily back in a Birmingham shirt. Mostly to bring back one of the best chants ever..."At number 1, is Tebily, at number 2 is Tebily..."

    These days, he's making Cognac in France... No, honestly!
