    Millwall 1-2 Fulham

    Straight away, the Lions get another sight at goal, but Benik Afobe sends his shot straight at Paulo Gazzaniga from inside the box.

    Millwall are getting the ball forward as quickly as they can.

    Benik Afobe (87 mins)

    Milwall are back in with a shout with a slightly fortuitous goal.

    A ball from deep is headed back across the box by Matt Smith.

    It deflects off the head of Benik Afobe and into the back of the Fulham net. The striker barely knew anything about it, but the ball flashed past the keeper.

    The Lions have barely been in the game and it now sets up a grandstand finish!

    Hudddersfield 1-0 Preston

    Huddersfield come within inches of doubling their advantage but are denied by the post.

    Sorba Thomas the man who sees his effort bounce back of the right post after a neat break.

    Millwall 0-2 Fulham

    Millwall create their best chance of the evening, but Matt Smith heads it over from 10 yards out.

    The big striker got up well to meet a cross from the left. He should have hit the target there against his old club.

    Fulham keeper Pauo Gazzaniga has not had a save to make this evening.

    Interesting...

    Millwall 0-2 Fulham

    Final roll of the dice by Lions boss Gary Rowett in a bid to get back into the match in the final 10 minutes.

    Right-back Danny McNamara and midfielder George Evans come on for Ryan Leonard and Maikel Kieftenbeld.

    Fulham Neeskens Kebano shot into the side-netting just before the double substitution, and Millwall keeper Bartosz Bialkowski has just saved a drive from Ivan Cavaleiro.

    Stephen Jones: Terrible start to the season for Reading, as it stands 2 defeats and 1 win.

    They've definitely been outplayed by Bristol City tonight - Nigel Pearson's side are 3-1 up.

    Millwall 0-2 Fulham

    Another big block stops a Fulham shot from nestling in the Millwall net.

    This time it's Jake Cooper who gets his body in the way of a shot from Fabio Carvalho.

    The travelling fans sing the 18-year-old's name.

    Carvalho has a goal and an assist this evening. He's been a cut above.

  14. Bolton breakthroughpublished at 21:22 British Summer Time 17 August 2021

    Bolton have scored a 77th-minute opener at Lincoln through Antoni Sarcevic.

    Sepp van den Berg OG (74 mins)

    Somehow Huddersfield have taken the lead in this game with their first effort on target and it didn't even come from someone in a home shirt!

    Sepp van den Berg has a moment to forget as he forces the ball into his own net under pressure from substitute Duanne Holmes.

    What an inocuous goal.

    Millwall 0-2 Fulham

    Into the final 20 minutes at The Den and Fulham are still bossing this London derby.

    Millwall centre-back Murray Wallace advanced from the back and up the left flank a few minutes ago, but didn't put the ball into the box with Benik Afobe and Matt Smith both in the area.

    The Whites are still popping it around nicely. But one Lions goal will change things...

    The visitors restore their two-goal lead.

    Andreas Weimann combines with Alex Scott with a one-two.

    After getting the return pass, some nifty footwork takes the Austrian round the keeper and he slots home for his second of the evening.

    Can Reading find a response? They have plenty of time on their side.
