Millwall midfielder wants to 'relive' goalscoring heroics against QPR

Burey scored his first goal for the club after coming on as a substitute for an injured Oliver Burke.

The 21-year-old doubled the Lions lead over the promotion-chasing QPR with a tidy finish past David Marshall.

Speaking about the goal, Burey told the club's website: “It’s an experience I want to relive! It was just great. My emotions were high. It was good to get on and take my chance.

“It was the only big chance I had in the game.

“It was good to score and get the most time I’ve had out on the pitch.

“I got the ball and took a touch - I knew where I was gonna put it; that far corner.

“I do it every day in training, I knew where I was going to shoot before I received the ball.”
