Result: Norwich City 3-3 Blackburn Rovers

Norwich City deny Blackburn Rovers victory with a last-minute penalty.

Blackburn Rovers were denied their first win in five league games this afternoon by a last-minute penalty for Norwich City.

After a goalless 45 minutes, David Hoilett laid the foundations for Steve Kean's men in the third minute of injury time, running through after a clearance from Martin Olsson.

Steve Morison equalised for the Canaries seven minutes after the half, but Ayegbeni Yakubu and Christopher Samba both struck home within the space of three minutes after the hour mark to give the visitors a two-goal lead.

Bradley Johnson retaliated with a goal in the 82nd minute, after which Blackburn retained possession for the rest of the game. However, the home side denied their guests a win with an injury-time penalty by Grant Holt.

Next up for Norwich is a trip to Villa Park next Saturday, while Rovers travel to Chelsea.
