Blackburn 1 – 0 Sheff Utd
Blackburn re-established themselves as automatic promotion contenders with a deserved 1-0 win over Sheffield United at Ewood Park.
The only goal of the game came inside five minutes, when Harry Pickering finished off a devastating counter-attack from the hosts, who were later twice denied by the woodwork.

As the second half wore on, the visitors’ frustration grew and Blades defender Chris Basham was fortunate to remain on the pitch after avoiding a second booking despite a studs-up tackle on Pickering.
But Rovers took all three points after their fourth straight league win and moved up to third, six points behind Sheffield United with 11 games to play.
