BBC Sport mentions a pitch invasion in the first leg of the second semi final. Is that notable enough to be added to the article?
Not really seeing that it had a major impact on the game itself. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 18:17, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
"The second leg, at Elland Road in Leeds," - can't find any mention of the match occurring at Elland Road by BBC Sport

"after Sam Sodje was pulled back in the area." - pulled back by whom?

"Scunthorpe had won both, with a 3–2 victory at home in October 2008 and a 2–1 win at the New Den." - which month did the 2-1 win at the New Den occur in?

"It was anticipated than around 45,000 Millwall supporters would attend the match," - anticipated by whom?
Done. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 18:17, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
Also, in the above sentence, I believe the word "than" is a spelling error, and thus should be spelt as "that"
