Millwall captain Danny Shittu headed his side into an FA Cup semi-final against Wigan as they won 1-0 against Blackburn, whose season took another dismal turn at Ewood Park.
Shittu, whose only other goal this season came in the Lions' fourth-round triumph over Aston Villa, came close to scoring with a pair of spectacular long-range efforts when the first attempt to settle this all-Championship quarter-final finished goalless at the weekend.
A thumping header more akin to a robust centre-half was Shittu's chosen method on this occasion as he converted Chris Taylor's 43rd minute corner and settled the contest.
