Millwall hold Sheffield Wednesday after late penalty from Andy Keogh

Millwall scored a penalty three minutes from the end of time to deny Sheffield Wednesday a victory at the Hillsborough Stadium.

Sheffield Wednesday were held to a 2-2 draw after Andy Keogh scored a late penalty to rescue a point for Millwall this afternoon.

Millwall took an early lead within five minutes when Wednesday defender Kamil Zayatte put the ball into his own net.

Their lead didn't last long as the home side equalised within two minutes. Following a long free kick into the box, keeper Stephen Bywater dropped the ball and Reda Johnson was on hand to head in from close range.

In the 21st minute, Frenchman Jeremy Helan put Wednesday into the lead when he fired a low shot into the corner from 20 yards.

Atdhe Nuhiu nearly scored a third goal for the home side at the end of the first half when his glancing header hit the post.

Andy Keogh had a great chance early in the second half to equalise for Millwall but he could only head Liam Feeney's cross wide from close range.

The visitors were awarded a penalty three minutes from the end when goalscorer Jeremy Helan fouled Richard Chaplow.

Andy Keogh stepped up and finished past Chris Kirkland to earn a point for Millwall and claim their first point of the Championship season.
