Sammie Szmodics salvaged a point for Blackburn but his 20th Championship goal of the season could not disguise the home side’s frustration after a tough 1-1 draw with Millwall at Ewood Park.

Szmodics, who may play his first game for Ireland at the end of this month, pounced on a defensive error to fire home just past the hour mark, 10 minutes after Millwall substitute, and Irish striker Michael Obafemi had lashed the Lions in front.
