Millwall Boss Neil Harris Hails “Special” Win Over Leeds United

Millwall’s 1-0 victory over Leeds United on Wednesday night has propelled the Lions into the Championship play-off spots, and manager Neil Harris has praised his team’s resilience.

Japhet Tanganga’s 40th-minute strike secured Millwall’s fourth consecutive clean sheet and fourth straight Championship win. Harris’ side now occupy fifth place in the table, having beaten automatic promotion hopefuls Burnley and Leeds in successive games.

“I want to praise Daniel Farke,” Harris said. “He’s a top coach and he has a very, very good team there – the best team I’ve seen this season. I can’t see who comes above them in the league from what I have seen so far.”

Harris lauded his team’s defensive discipline, describing the win as “a classic Den performance – it was backs to the walls and not a lot of the ball.” He added, “We had to rely on being very good at what we do… Then we had to find a way to affect it at the other end of the pitch.”

The victory marks a significant statement of intent from Millwall, who now sit just two points behind third-placed Leeds.
