Shittu denied by the centre referee

Liam Trotter's stoppage-time penalty helped Danny Shittu's Millwall to snatch a point against in-form Reading.

Sean Morrison's header early in the first half gave Jonathan Obit's Reading, unbeaten at home this season, the lead.

Hope Akpan was an unused substitite for the Royals.

The draw lifts Millwall, who have won only once away from home this season, further clear of the relegation zone.

But Reading, who were aiming for a sixth victory in nine league games, lose ground on the Championship's top two Burnley and Leicester.

The offside flag brought a halt to Danny Shittu's celebrations after the defender thought he had scored at the far post.
