Review
Lewis Grabban made up for a penalty missed in the first 10 minutes with two goals (including antother penalty) and both teams had a lot of chances to score. Jack Colback made an unbelievable goal line clearance with his head in the first half but we let Blackburn back in after a lucky first goal. Great run for us right now.
