Cantwell eases Blackburn relegation fears with winner at Birmingham

Captain Todd Cantwell’s strike secured three vital points for Blackburn in their quest for Sky Bet Championship survival as they edged past Birmingham 1-0 at St Andrew’s on Good Friday.

Cantwell scored the only goal in the 69th minute when he fired past Blues goalkeeper James Beadle after good work from team-mate Ryoya Morishita, his effort enough to claim victory and pull Rovers six points clear of the relegation zone.
