Promotion-chasing Ipswich Town hold a 2-1 half-time lead over hosts Millwall in the Championship, thanks to an early brace from midfielder Noel Hunt.

A first-half brace from Noel Hunt has given promotion-chasing Ipswich Town a 2-1 half-time lead over lowly Millwall in the Championship this afternoon.

It was the promotion hopefuls who took the lead early on, when Hunt was picked out by Stephen Hunt, with the midfielder finishing into the centre of goal with his left past a helpless David Forde in the fifth minute.

The visitors increased their lead just under 10 minutes later, as Hunt was left to bag his brace after breaking free in the box to tuck home from close range following some industrious work that saw the Millwall defence fail to clear their lines.

Town could have made it 3-0 through Paul Anderson before half time, but Forde pulled off a standout stop at his top corner to keep out the headed effort from a Tyrone Mings cross.

Millwall grabbed themselves a lifeline two minutes before the half came to an end, when Magaye Gueye found space inside the box to convert into the bottom corner.
