Shittu sends Millwall into FA Cup semis

11:55 am on 14 March 2013

A first-half header from Nigerian centre-back Danny Shittu gave Millwall a 1-0 win at Blackburn Rovers that set up an FA Cup semi-final at Wembley against Wigan Athletic.

Shittu, the Millwall captain, struck shortly before half-time to settle the quarter-final tie, three days on from the hard-fought 0-0 draw between the Championship rivals at the Den on Monday.
