Blackburn with first point

premier league live streamFulham and Blackburn ended in a draw 1:1 match of the 4th round of the Premier League, played in London.

Both goals came in the first half, as Bobby Zamora’s strike cancelled out an effort from Ruben Rochina that means both sides are still searching for their first win of the season.

But the game ended on a sour note as Blackburn's Junior Hoilett was stretchered off with a head injury after a last minute clash with Fulham keeper Mark Schwarzer.

Both sides started with their new star signings from deadline day coming up against each other as Fulham’s record buy, Costa Rican frontman Bryan Ruiz, started as part of the Craven Cottage strike force against new Blackburn centre-back Scott Dann, who signed from Birmingham City.

The game started brightly with each side looking to press forward and get an early goal to calm their nerves, with both sitting in the bottom two places of the Premier League coming into the game, but neither could find that killer pass to open up the opposition defence.

Fulham were the first to have a chance on goal as Damien Duff raced down the right wing, before crossing in search of Steve Sidwell, but the midfielder could only direct his shot wide of Paul Robinson’s left-hand post.

Both sides continued to press forward for the reminder of the half, but they could not find the goal that would have given them the lead going into the half-time break.
