Gary Bowyer hails Blackburn Rovers strike pair

Blackburn Rovers boss Gary Bowyer hails strike duo Rudy Gestede and Jordan Rhodes after the pair each found the net during the team's 2-0 win over Millwall.

Blackburn Rovers boss Gary Bowyer has praised Rudy Gestede and Jordan Rhodes after their goals helped the team to a 2-0 win over Millwall.

Rovers tightened their grip on ninth place in the Championship table last night as they saw off the Lions at Ewood Park.

While admitting that his side were wasteful in front of goal, Bowyer is pleased that Gestede and Rhodes were able to take their chances when it mattered. The duo have now found the net 39 times between them this season.

"I've been saying all along, we've got a hell of a lot to play for still," he is quoted as saying by BBC Sport. "We want to finish as high as we can and individuals have got personal targets to reach and hit and you saw two of them get on the scoresheet tonight.

"We could have had more, Tom Cairney's been wasteful in front of goal. He should have done better and we should have been cuter setting one or two up but overall we're pleased with the clinical finishing of the front two again."

Blackburn continue their league campaign on Saturday when they make the trip to Huddersfield Town.
