Derby County boss John Eustace told BBC Radio Derby:

“I was under no illusions as to how difficult it was going to be. But I’m here for the long term not the short term.

“It’s very hard to get that magical solution straightaway, but there’s lots to work on.

“We didn’t deserve to lose but the attitude was very good and they never gave up

“The lads are working hard on the training ground. But we need to create more chances.”

Millwall head coach Alex Neil told BBC Radio London:

“We always knew it was going to be tough. It was John Eustace’s first home game and, given where Derby are in the league, we knew we had to go about our work.

“The discussion point before the game was: don’t let this season drift. We’re at that stage where you look at the fixtures and think ‘That’s a big one’ and we don’t want to be any different. The last thing we want is for people looking at our games thinking ‘That’s a dead rubber’.

“It was no more than we deserved. We were the team pushing to try and get the goal.

“And it showed the resilience of the group. The moment’s gone .Don’t feel sorry for yourself, get on with it and we did. The ball landed to Josh and he tucked it away. It’s a good moment for him. He deserved it.”
