  English Championship Wrap: Ameobi's Brace Helps Nottingham Forest Beat Millwall As John Equaliser Denies Mikel's Stoke A Win By Omolagba Oluwayemi Nottingham Forest extended their unbeaten run in the Championship to six with a 3-1 win against out of form Millwall, BSNsports.com.ng reports. Nigerian Sammy Ameobi (34) first half opener gave Forest the lead going into the break, he then completed his brace when he sent a fine curling shot past Bartosz Bialkowksi from the edge of the area in the 70th minute. Yates added a third from Cafu's corner before Ben Thompson netted a late consolation for the visitors, firing home a half-volley after controlling a punched clearance by keeper Brice Samba.
