Leo Ulloa grabbed a late goal to earn a point for Albion today.
The striker was on hand at the far post to turn home a cross from lively sub Kazenga LuaLua as the Seagulls drew 1-1 with Millwall.
His 88th-minute strike cancelled out a drilled opener for Martyn Woolford five minutes into the second period.
Millwalll were reduced to ten men on 77 minutes when right-back Alan Dunne, already booked for time-wasting, brought down Andrea Orlandi.
Orlandi and LuaLua perked up the home side coming off the bench after a dreadfully dull first half.
An Orlandi free-kick led to Ulloa heading what he thought was the equaliser but ref Bobby Madley had spotted some pushing.
Albion piled players forward in the closing stages – both before and after Ulloa’s goal - and Orlandi curled just past the far post with virtually the last kick.
But both sets of fans seemed reasonably happy with a point at the end.
