Middlesbrough fight back to hold Millwall in Championship
LONDON: Middlesbrough fought back from two goals down to rescue a 2-2 draw with Millwall in the Championship, while Lincoln won 1-0 at Bristol City on Tuesday.
Middlesbrough staged an incredible comeback to secure a 2-2 draw against Millwall in the Championship, overcoming a two-goal deficit. The hosts dominated possession with over 80%, but fell behind at halftime to goals from Tairyk Arconte and Lyndon Dykes. Arconte opened the scoring off the post in the 11th minute, while Dykes followed up Caleb Taylor's assist in the 36th minute.
However, Middlesbrough responded after half-time, with Amario Cozier-Duberry netting his second goal since joining on loan from Brighton, and Will Lankshear, signed from Tottenham, heading in to make it 2-2 in the 61st minute. This win lifted Middlesbrough to third place, behind leaders West Ham and second-placed Swansea on goal difference.
In another match on Tuesday, Lincoln emerged victorious 1-0 at home to Bristol City, formerly Middlesbrough boss Michael Skubala's team. Skubala left Lincoln to take charge of City after steering the Imps to the League One title last season. The decisive moment came in the 53rd minute when Ben House intercepted a miscued back-pass by Rob Dickie, leaving goalkeeper Sam Tickle stranded.
Freddie Draper took full advantage, scoring the only goal of the game and lifting Lincoln into eighth place in their first-ever second-tier season.
