Kenny Jackett: "We surprised Brighton & Hove Albion"

Millwall manager Kenny Jackett has said that his team gave an "excellent" performance against fellow playoff hopefuls Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Lions were pegged back by a goal by Kazenga LuaLua and a late David Lopez penalty, after Chris Wood's double had put them on course for all three points.

Jackett said that he was pleased by Millwall's performance, despite giving away a two-goal lead.

"I thought it was an excellent performance by ourselves," Jackett told the club's official website.

"We played very well and gave them problems, particularly early on in the game.

"We surprised Brighton, but the pressure was always going to come and it was a 50-50 penalty decision right at the end."

Millwall sit sixth in the Championship.
