Millwall came from two goals down to hold Lincoln City to a 2-2 draw at The Den in the Sky Bet Championship on Saturday. Andrei Coubis gave the visitors an early lead after just 25 seconds, firing a low strike from outside the box that went in off the far post. Rob Street doubled Lincoln's lead in the 33rd minute, though the goal was controversial, as a clear handball by Reeco Hackett in the build-up was missed by the assistant referee.
Millwall responded with a much-improved second-half performance. Kyrell Lisbie pulled one back in the 63rd minute, sliding in his first goal for the Lions after Camiel Neghli's low cross. Lincoln wasted chances to restore their cushion, with Freddie Draper and Dom Jefferies both hitting the woodwork, before Jake Cooper's scrambled equaliser in the 82nd minute rescued a point for the home side.
The game turned further when Deji Elerewe was sent off in the 84th minute for Lincoln, leaving the Imps to play out the closing minutes with ten men. Millwall held on for a share of the spoils, preventing back-to-back home defeats.
The result was a welcome pick-me-up for Lincoln after their 6-0 midweek thrashing by West Ham, while Millwall will be relieved to have avoided a second successive home loss.
