Millwall boss Willie Donachie hailed two-goal hero Neil Harris as the Lions moved into contention for a play-off spot after beating Carlisle United 2-0 at the New Den.

The victory lifts Donachie's side up to 11th in the League One table, only five points adrift of the top six, as Harris brought his league goal tally in his two spells with the club up to 96.

"Neil's been threatening to do that for a few weeks now," said a delighted Donachie.

"We played him more centrally in the second half and it's paid off for him. I'm delighted for Neil because he's been filling in all over the place and always puts in a fantastic effort.

"As for the play-offs, they've been in everyone's mind all season, even when we were in a terrible position. We've got a good run going now but we're just looking at Crewe next and we'll see what happens."
