    Nottingham Forest manager Sabri Lamouchi speaking to Sky Sports that he 'probably would not' play three at the back again:

    "The second half was much better defensively and offensively as well. We created a lot of chances.

    "Millwall won the first half and we won the second one.

    "A draw was logical for the two teams."

    Millwall manager Gary Rowett told Sky Sports:

    "I thought first half was as good a display as you're going to see.

    "We didn't disappoint first, we were very very good.

    "Second half you knew the game was going to swing a bit.

    "We just ran out of steam, conceded a really poor goal and that was my disappointment.

    "We've got massive character and when you think we're out of the game we kept trying and trying and trying."

    So Forest stay fourth in the Championship. They are two points off third-placed Fulham and have now played the same number of matches (19).

    One wonders whether Sabri Lamouchi will try three at the back again after Forest's abject first half.

    Millwall move up a place to 12th in the Championship as a result of the late equaliser.

    Lewis Grabban has now scored five goals in his last six games after his brace this evening.

    He took just 50 seconds to get his first this evening after coming on as a substitute for the ineffective Rafa Mir just after the hour mark.

    You have to wonder why he did not start tonight - we may find out soon...

    Man of the Match Jed Wallace told Sky Sports:

    "It was an up and down game.

    "Forest are a good side, brought some good players on for this level and we did well in the end to get a point."

    On staying at Millwall beyond January:

    "I love playing here, I give what I've got every game.

    "The crowd are on my side, I enjoy playing here and I give it my all."

    What an ending to a game.

    Millwall dominated the first half, Forest had the better of the second half.

    Millwall had chances to go 2-0 up, but Lewis Grabban turned it around and put Forest in front before Aiden O'Brien's late leveller.

    Well, well, well. What an end to this game we are having.

    Can either side get a winner? Jed Wallace has come close for the Lions.

    Aiden O'Brien

    Oh my!

    Shaun Williams' long-range low effort wobbles in the air, Brice samba can only palm it out into the path of Aiden O'Brien and the Republic of Ireland man converts from close range.

    Albert Adomah, who missed a great chance just before the second goal, has another half chance but the Millwall goalkeeper just beats him to the ball.

    Lewis Grabban

    Would you believe it? Lewis Grabban again.

    The now 10-goal top scorer drifted into the box with the ball, fed Sammy Ameobi and then tapped in the pacey return ball into the net from five yards out.

    A simple goal, but Grabban's movement was class. Why didn't he start?

    Jed Wallace has been immense tonight for Millwall.

    He has just glided past Tiago Silva like he was not there - the Forest defenders do not know whether to go tight and get skinned or give him space and watch him breeze past them.

    Millwall might do well to keep hold of him come the January transfer window...

    Millwall 1-1 Nottingham Forest

    Forest clear off the line. Cooper heads a corner goalwards and Forest survive as Sammy Ameobi heads clear at the back post.

    Millwall have two or three more attempts at goal but they cannot get a decent strike away and the visitors survive.

    Another great chance for Millwall.

    Millwall 1-1 Nottingham Forest

    Forest have had 68% possession this half and hit the target four times - they had no shots on target in the first period and only half the possession.

    The tactical change back to four at the back has certainly paid dividends.

    Millwall 1-1 Nottingham Forest

    Millwall really had a case for a penalty there, Tom Bradshaw looked to be tripped in he area by Sammy Ameobi.

    Ameobi did not seem to have his eyes on the ball - if there was VAR in the Championship I think we might be having a review now...

    What a save! Brice Samba saves Forest there. A superb chance for Jake Cooper as he heads towards goal from about three yards out. Ben Thompson flicked the ball over his head and Cooper should have done better.

    A minute later Millwall have a big penalty shout but it is not given.
