Result: Fulham 1 - 1 Blackburn

Fulham and Blackburn share the spoils in a Premier League clash at Craven Cottage.

Fulham and Blackburn were forced to settle for a point apiece as the two sides played out a dour 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage.

After a tepid first half hour, Blackburn took a surprise lead as Ruben Rochina scored his first Premier League goal with a left-footed strike from the edge of the area.

Fulham hit back five minutes later though as Danny Murphy played the ball into Bobby Zamora in the box and the striker curled the ball into the corner.

There were few chances of note in the second half as Blackburn seemed content to try to hold on to a point, although Danny Murphy was denied by a flying save from Paul Robinson.

Robinson was called into action again in the last minute as he repelled Clint Dempsey's effort.

There was late controversy when Mark Schwarzer brought down Junior Hoilett just outside of his box as Blackburn threatened to score a winner, but the Fulham keeper was only booked, while Hoilett was stretchered off in a neck brace.
