Portsmouth Grabs Lucky Win Over Millwall; Norwich Breaks Losing Streak in Championship Drama

Portsmouth pulled off a dramatic 2-1 comeback victory against Millwall, thanks to a seriously lucky late goal from striker Thomas Waddingham that ricocheted into the net. This nail-biting win at Fratton Park, which saw Millwall initially lead, keeps Portsmouth momentum going strong in the EFL Championship. Meanwhile, Norwich City finally snapped their concerning five-game losing streak by securing a convincing 3-1 win over Charlton Athletic, offering a much-needed morale boost for the Canaries. The clash between Portsmouth and Millwall was packed with drama from the start, highlighted by a costly error from Portsmouth goalkeeper Nicolas Schmid and an unfortunate own goal by Millwall Lyndon Dykes. For Portsmouth, this win is crucial for their push up the table, currently sitting 11th with 18 points. On the other hand, Millwall, now 13th with 15 points, will be frustrated, especially after their captain, Jake Cooper, was involved in the unlucky winning goal for Pompey. Norwich's victory is even more significant, as they've been struggling, placed 20th in the league with just 9 points, their previous form showing a worrying run of five consecutive losses. Looking ahead, Portsmouth will aim to build on this fortunate win to solidify their position in the top half of the Championship, with their next fixtures being vital for a potential play-off challenge. Millwall, despite the setback, needs to quickly regroup to prevent slipping further down the congested mid-table. Norwich City return to a winning streak is a ray of hope, and they will be desperate to carry this momentum forward to climb out of the relegation zone and regain some stability in what has been a tough 2026/2027 season so far.
