Championship roundup: Burnley held by Millwall as Blackburn go fourth

Substitute Tom Bradshaw’s late strike rescued a point for Millwall against Championship leaders Burnley who had to settle for a 1-1 draw at the Den.

Ashley Barnes’ poacher’s effort in the 51st minute, his second goal in as many games, was looking it would be the difference on Tuesday evening in south London. But Bradshaw kept his cool five minutes from time to slot home his 11th goal of the season and give the Lions’ play-off push even more credibility.

Following a thrilling 3-2 win over second-place Sheffield United on Saturday, Millwall are now up to fifth, while Burnley are 12 points clear of the Blades.

Elsewhere, Blackburn moved into the play-off places with a dominant 1-0 win over struggling Blackpool. Jon Dahl Tomasson’s men made it back-to-back single-goal victories but unlike the Swansea game, they were in control here and the outcome never looked in doubt once Tyrhys Dolan had emphatically put Rovers ahead with his fifth goal of the season just after the half-hour mark.

Substitute Tyler Morton missed a chance to make the game safe late on but Blackburn, backed up by a defence that had kept three successive clean sheets at Ewood Park before this, held on to move up to fourth.

Two goals from Marcelino Núñez, the first an absolute stunner, guided Norwich to a hard-fought 3-1 victory over Birmingham at Carrow Road. The Chile international produced a stunning volley from well outside the box to open the scoring after 27 minutes and quickly added a second to seemingly put the Canaries in command.

Birmingham gave them a scare by pulling one back early the second half through Maxime Colin and went on to give a good account of themselves until a late third from substitute Christos Tzolis settled the issue. The win
