LIONS’ BRAIN FADE

- By TOM HARVEY at the Den

MILLWALL boss Neil Harris questioned his side’s mental strength after they were held to a draw at home.

The Lions came from behind to lead, but switched off at a set-piece as the Tigers snatched a point.

“We dominated from start to finish,” said Harris, whose side have now gone six games without a win.

“Shot count, set-pieces, crosses, aerial duels, foot races, tackles, but the scoreline says it was 2-2. It comes down to the mental focus of the players and doing your jobs better.”

Hull went in front in the sixth minute. Jarrod Bowen found Kamil Grosicki in space in the box and the Pole’s rightfoote­d drive beat Jordan Archer at his near post.

The hosts levelled in the 22nd minute.

David Marshall misjudged the flight of James Meredith’s leftwing cross and Lee Gregory rose to nod home. The Lions took the lead in the 54th minute. Steve Morison fed Aiden O’brien and his low shot from 22 yards flew into the left-hand corner.

Hull grabbed a point with a rare foray forward on 73 minutes, Markus Henriksen (left) heading in from close range.

City gaffer Nigel Adkins said: “This is a challengin­g place to come – we knew we’d have to be competitiv­e.”
