Blackburn Rovers 1 Middlesbrough 2: match report The disparity mattered little here and Boro capitalised on a subdued atmosphere before Blackburn could get going. Lukas Jutkiewicz played a simple one-two with Marvin Emnes and used his right boot to steer underneath Paul Robinson. A greater lead should have been commanded ahead of the break with Grant Leadbitter swirling a free-kick beyond Robinson's far post before the same player combined with Josh McEachran only to be wasteful. Blackburn's sole response was a miskicked cross by Fabio Nunes that hit the bar. The "Kean out" chants had already started by then, this time in the 18th minute. Comically, the second period had to wait until a fault with the sprinkler system at the Darwen End was fixed. Almost immediately, Martin Olsson was substituted for Grant Hanley by Kean and the left-back did not agree; ignoring his manager's offer of a handshake. On the terraces, Rovers supporters sang about Jack Walker, the club's iconic former owner. How they must yearn for a statesman at the very top such as he. A chorus for Keen's departure was just starting when Jutkiewicz headed in his second following some classic centre-forward play, manoeuvring space from Hanley and arching his neck to create power from 10 yards. Hanley replied with a header late on and then the hosts might have had a penalty when Jordan Rhodes tumbled. Yet Blackburn deserved nothing. There was a sense that their start to the season was a false dawn. This did little to suggest otherwise.
