Former QPR and Watford centre-back Danny Shittu was on song when Millwall were forced to a thrilling two-all draw against leaders Burnley on Saturday.
Scott McDonald's early volley and Danny Shittu's deflected strike put the Lions two goals up.
Australian forward McDonald volleyed into the far corner from eight yards after Paul Robinson's accurate knock-down.
It was only the second time Burnley had conceded the first goal of a game this season but they were 2-0 down 15 minutes later, through an unexpected source - Lions centre-back Shittu netted with a deflected long-range shot that sailed past a wrong-footed Heaton.
The Clarets halved the deficit immediately through Vokes but at the start of the second half the hosts were again the livelier, Waghorn twice going close with shots from long distance.
But on 55 minutes, Kightly found space in the final third and his dragged shot, which was heading wide, deflected in off Lowry as he attempted to clear.
