53' Minute –
The shape was different. You could see it before the second half even kicked off.
Millwall switched to a 3-5-2, and their full-backs started standing five yards higher—daring Bradford to play through midfield, daring them to overstep.
And then they pressed.
Not wild, not erratic—targeted. And it worked.
A chipped ball from their keeper was headed on by a wingback. A midfielder latched onto the second ball and sent a lofted diagonal toward the left channel.
Bianchi misjudged the arc.
He stepped up, thinking Fletcher had cover behind. But there was no cover—just Millwall's striker peeling into the blindside.
First touch was perfect.
Second was ruthless.
He took it on the bounce and laced it across Cox from a tight angle—low, fierce, unforgiving.
Net.
Clive Tyldesley (Sky Sports):
"And they're back in it. A crack in the glass, and Millwall slide through it. Sometimes all it takes is one misread."
Cox reached for it, but couldn't do much.
