Leeds United came within a penalty save of beating Millwall and reaching the League One play-off final in May 2009. Having found themselves a goal down from the semi-final first leg in south London the Whites went all out to turn round the defecit. Elland Road was treated to a full bloodied entertaining 90 minutes. Jermaine Beckford missed from the penalty spot before Luciano Becchio scored after 53 minutes to set up a frantic finish. But it was Djimi Abdou who broke Leeds hearts after he poked home Lewis Grabban's cross to level the game after 74 minutes and win the tie overall. "I've got to say the Leeds crowd were magnificent. Walking back myself, they were first class, congratulating us and although it's no consolation they were a credit to their club," said MIllwall manager Kenny Jackett.
