Millwall manager Alex Neil has hailed their "unbelievable season" after beating Oxford United 2-0 – despite missing out on automatic promotion.

Ipswich pipped Millwall to second place in the Championship and Neil insists it is not a disappointment for the Lions to be in the play-offs.

Millwall will face Hull City in a shoot-out for a place at Wembley and Neil is well satisfied with their Championship campaign.

He told BBC Radio London: "I thought we deserved to win the game, I thought we were comfortable – my only frustration is we haven't scored more in the first half.

"But when you can hear the fans shouting it's 2-0 after 10 minutes, we've just got to remain focused and do our bit because you never know what's going to happen.

"Football lasts 90-odd minutes and we had to make sure that we didn't slip up and we got the job done.

"We did that, so now we're in the playoffs with an unbelievable season, but there's still a lot to play for."
