Blackburn’s Championship season continued with a draw against QPR at Loftus Road on Saturday.
A point at QPR, as Blackburn came back from a goal-down in a one-one draw, wasn’t enough to move Rovers off the foot of the table but did prevent a fifth defeat.
Chery’s scored a fine opener for QPR around the midway point of the second half when he curled into the top corner from 25-yards with a freekick, which he had won after being fouled by Marshall.
Defeat was on for Blackburn again until Evans, who had come on for the injured debutant Mulgrew, crossing into Gallagher with the Southampton loanee earning a point on 73-minutes.
Here’s a round up of the Championship action from the other matches played, with one still to take place.
