Millwall leapfrogged Middlesbrough into second place after a dramatic 2-1 Sky Bet Championship win at the Riverside Stadium, fueled by Josh Coburn's brace against his old team. The Lions trailed 1-0 at halftime but rallied in the second half, with Coburn's 58th-minute volley and 86th-minute strike sealing the victory. Coburn, signed from Middlesbrough in 2022, became the hero as he latched onto Barry Bannan's assist to secure the win.

Manager Alex Neil praised the team's resilience, noting Coburn's return added unique motivation: 'You couldn't have scripted it with Coburn coming back to his old side.'.
