Blackburn Rovers 1-1 Norwich City: Dominic Hyam scores rare goal to earn Rovers draw

Dominic Hyam scored his first goal for 17 months to earn Blackburn a point against Norwich at Ewood Park.

The centre-back headed home a second-half equaliser but Rovers could not give John Eustace his first win, the manager having now drawn three and lost one since taking charge.

Norwich had taken the lead with a Marcelino Nunez free-kick, but the Chile international limped off with a suspected hamstring injury late in the game.

The point is enough to see the Canaries back into seventh place, but they remain three points behind sixth-placed Hull.

Norwich had been hoping to boost their play-off hopes after putting together a five-match unbeaten run going into the game - and knowing Ewood is normally a happy hunting ground for them, winning on their five previous visits.
