Millwall maintained their perfect start to the Championship season as Tairyk Arconte scored twice to help them cruise past 10-man Norwich.

Alex Neil's side, beaten play-off semi-finalists last season, dominated proceedings at The Den and took a deserved lead when Arconte reacted quickest after Josh Coburn's effort was parried by Vladan Kovacevic.

Arconte scored his second after Jake Cooper nodded down a cross from a quickly taken free-kick.

The game was up for the Canaries when Jose Cordoba saw red for a second yellow just past the hour, and substitute Luke Cundle added a late third for the hosts.

There were emotional scenes pre-match as Millwall remembered former manager Kenny Jackett, who died in June, with a minute's applause before kick-off.

The Lions started strongest - and never really looked back after Arconte opened the scoring. Indeed, their lead should have been greater at the break but for Cordoba hacking Kyrell Lisbie's effort off the line just before half-time.

Millwall's attacking adventurousness was on full display despite the absence of winger Femi Azeez, who has been linked with a move away before the transfer window shuts on 1 September.

After Cordoba saw red, Neil's side controlled what remained of the game before Cundle's third - after he was picked out by Camiel Neghli - added an exclamation mark to the result.

For Philippe Clement's Norwich, tipped to fight for promotion in 2026-27, this was a wake-up call.

While their opening defeat by West Bromwich Albion came tied to controversy, there could be no complaints at The Den as the Canaries limped away from south-east London still yet to claim a point this season.
