  • Derby move level with Middlesbrough but 嘘(をつく) just outside play-off places
  • Paul Clement's 味方する unbeaten in last seven league games since August?
  • Blackburn continue to struggle in 底(に届く)-half of 選手権
  • Point takes Gary Bowyer's 味方する only two points (疑いを)晴らす of relegation zone?

Two of the 選手権’s 主要な marksmen 解雇する/砲火/射撃d blanks as Derby showed they have steel to complement their swagger.

Having entered the play-off places on the 支援する of Chris ツバメ’s form in 前線 of goal ? the Scotland international (機の)カム into this contest having 得点する/非難する/20d nine in his previous 14 外見s ? Derby were the 分割’s form team.

However, they arrived at Ewood Park in the knowledge that in ツバメ’s compatriot Jordan Rhodes Blackburn 所有するd a striker 平等に prolific.

Both had seven league goals to their 指名する at kick-off yet neither were 現在のd with anything like a chance on a night when defences 支配するd.

にもかかわらず, a point 持続するs the 勢い for the midlands club under their new 経営者/支配人 Paul Clement.

Derby’s season had developed into a feast に引き続いて an 初期の 飢饉 ? winless for half a dozen, they arrived at Ewood Park unbeaten in six, with five of those matches ending in victory ? yet this was not the 肉親,親類d of シャンペン酒 football their fans 証言,証人/目撃するd in Sunday’s 4-2 勝利,勝つ over Wolves.

Far from it, in fact, as hosts Blackburn rather than upwardly-動きやすい Derby carved out the better of 限られた/立憲的な chances.

Had the best couple fallen to 最高の,を越す scorer Rhodes rather than Chris Taylor, the Lancashire club would arguably have been ahead inside the 開始 10 minutes.

The first of them, a 解放する/自由な header gifted by Stephen Warnock’s slip as Tom Lawrence’s corner arrowed into the six-yard box, drifted aimlessly wide. Then, when Warnock was outfoxed by Lawrence on Rovers’ 権利, Taylor stabbed awkwardly at the 近づく 地位,任命する when composure was 要求するd.

At the other end it took a 罰金 封鎖する from 一時しのぎの物,策 十分な-支援する Ben Marshall ? deputizing for the 一時停止するd Adam Henley ? to 妨げる Johnny Russell giving Derby a 17th-minute lead but the 訪問者s were unable to 発揮する 十分な 圧力 負かす/撃墜する their left 側面に位置する to expose any 証拠不十分s.

That was partly 予定 to Blackburn 無効にするing Derby’s 所有/入手 game with their harrying in midfield. The in-the-直面する 策略 were not 高く評価する/(相場などが)上がるd by Paul Clement’s 味方する, however, and a melee 続いて起こるd in the 37th minute after Hope Akpan went to the 床に打ち倒す に引き続いて a grapple with Bradley Johnson that saw the latter’s 指名する entered into 審判(をする) Darren Drysdale’s notebook.

The greasy surface, 原因(となる)d by the incessant 霧雨, 証明するd a 実験(する) for all and both Derby’s Tom Ince and Lawrence, of Blackburn, 実験(する)d the 対立 goalkeepers with 思索的な 成果/努力s across the turf.

But the only other 脅す for either team (機の)カム in 傷害 time when Jason Steele bodged his 通関手続き/一掃 straight to Ince.

However, the former Liverpool winger could not 支配(する)/統制する and the 適切な時期, like the chance of a 肯定的な result, was gone.
