Bournemouth 1-1 Millwall: Matt Smith goal earns Lions draw

Substitute Matt Smith scored with his first touch to give strugglers Millwall a well-deserved draw at Bournemouth.

Only a minute after coming on, the striker got on the end of a Jake Cooper flick to poke the ball past Asmir Begovic and earn Millwall a point.

Dominic Solanke's 10th Championship goal of the season had put the Cherries ahead, a powerful strike from a tricky angle that beat Lions keeper Bartosz Bialkowski at his near post.

The visitors almost levelled earlier but Kenneth Zohore's drilled free-kick hit the post while Bournemouth came closest to a late winner when Joshua King lashed just wide.
