Josh Coburn's first-half sitter slipped away as Millwall settled for a 1-1 draw at West Brom, a result that keeps the Lions in the Championship top two. The striker, fresh off March's Player of the Month award for three goals in three games, sent a Thierno Ballo delivery wide from point-blank range. West Brom, unbeaten in seven matches, capitalized on Millwall's missed opportunities to maintain their own survival hopes. The draw leaves both teams level on points, with West Brom holding a five-point cushion over the drop zone and three games in hand on Millwall.

Millwall dominated the first half, with Mihailo Ivanovic hitting the bar from distance, but West Brom's second-half resilience proved decisive. Nathan Patterson denied Jayson Molumby in the 82nd minute, while Daniel Imray's back-post clearance thwarted Tom Watson. Despite creating more chances, Millwall's inability to convert opportunities proved costly. The Tractor Boys' manager James Morrison praised his team's effort: "We kept pushing to the end... we just needed a ball to fall to us."

The result reshapes the Championship promotion race, with Millwall now relying on West Brom's results to maintain their top-two position. West Brom's survival battle intensifies as they face Sheffield Wednesday and Ipswich in crucial upcoming fixtures. For Millwall, six changes were made at halftime to combat fatigue, but the point highlights persistent finishing issues. Alex Neil emphasized: "We had enough chances to win... we take the point and move on."

With four games remaining, both clubs face pivotal matches. West Brom's survival hopes hinge on avoiding slip-ups, while Millwall must balance promotion aspirations with consistency. The draw underscores the Championship's tight race, where missed chances and defensive lapses can define seasons.
