Boskamp chuffed with win

"This is the first game where we have played with 11 men for the whole game - and we took three points," said Johan.

"We found it difficult in the first 15 minutes - but after that our goalkeeper didn't have much to do, and what he had to do, he did well.

"It was a great finish by John Halls for the goal. We like to play good football and to work hard, and that was what earned us the three points today."

Colin Lee (Millwall Manager) wasn't as chuffed as our Boskamp though:"Perhaps the players thought this would be an easier game [than Coventry] and there was a little bit of complacency," said Lee.

"You could sense it in the dressing room. Maybe they got a lift after drawing with Coventry with only 10 men on the field.

"But we are nowhere near the stage where we can simply turn up for football matches and expect to win.

"There is not a team in the country that can afford to do that. You have to make sure you win the game."

"We struggled today and we looked like we lacked energy - it was a poor display," continued Lee. "Maybe the players' football fitness levels are not as high as they should be.
