Huddersfield 1 Millwall 2

James Henry's injury time winner added another three points to Millwall's League One tally at Huddersfield's Galphram stadium.
The on-loan Reading youngster sent Scott Barron's cross goalwards just as the game looked to be heading for a draw.
The result leaves Millwall in fourth position, five points ahead of seventh placed Leeds United with a game in hand.
Manager Kenny Jackett named Gary Alexander as the lone frontman for the trip, dropping Ashley Grimes in favour of right back Richard Duffy and pushing Adam Bolder in front of the back four.
Despite fielding only the single striker, Millwall could have been ahead on 11 minutes with the assistance of one of Huddersfield's own players. James Henry sent in a cross which Andy Butler headed against his own bar, leaving the home side counting their blessings.
While Henry and Alexander both managed to send shots goalward, Huddersfield offered very little in front of their own fans in the first half. But although they looked more determined after the break, they found themselves behind on 69 minutes through Marc Laird.
The midfielder dispatched Dave Martin's cross into the bottom corner after a quick throw paid dividends for the away side. However, the lead and the prospect of a clean sheet went out of the window just five minutes later when Gary Roberts converted a centre from Anthony Pilkington.
Substitute Scott Barron was forced to nod a Huddersfield effort out from under his own bar, while Gary Alexander was denied when Alex Smithies clawed his header onto the bar.
But it was Millwall who would take all the points in the third minute of added time. Barron ploughed out of defence after a Huddersfield corner broke down, and picked out Henry for the decisive score.
