But the seven goal thriller at The Den descended into bedlam when a “bunch of s***houses” hurled a missile at a coach.
Shocking footage shared on Twitter show smashed windows and mortified Blackburn fans cowering under seats as they leave South East London.
Other footage shows a group of louts hurl a projectile at the bus before it bounces back and hits the thug who chucked it.
Blackburn fans can be heard jeering at the sore losers during the altercation which also dented the bus.
One Rovers fan blasted: “Never been so scared leaving a football match! Seeing Millwall fans attack a coach in front of us.
“#millwall fans, you should be ashamed!!”
Police then tried to put a barrier between the coach and Millwall supporters, who were on foot leaving the game.
Red Rose Travel, a bus company from Oswaldtwistle, Lancashire, labelled the alleged Millwall fans as s***houses’” for trashing a coach.
In a Facebook post, the firm fumed: “Millwall FC probably lost millions tonight by not making it into the playoffs and the Premier League…
“But it doesn’t matter, they can trash the away fans coaches and risk injury to the families on board…
“Well done you guys…. You’ve achieved jack s* apart from costing an innocent business ££££’s… For what…. f# all!!!!! Bunch of s*houses….”
One man said in “almost 20 years” of organising away coaches he had “never witnessed anything like this”.
While a second demanded Millwall be “held accountable” for any damage to the coaches.
Millwall now sit eight in the Championship and Blackburn Rovers seventh, neither will get the chance to play Premier League football next season.
Millwall’s win at Blackpool on April 28 meant Gary Rowett’s side had to secure a final-day victory to bag a play-off fixture.
Blackburn needed three points and to hope other results went their way.
The Sun has approached Millwall FC and the Metropolitan Police for comment.
