Huddersfield Town 1-1 Blackburn Rovers

Danny Graham looked to have won it when he headed his seventh goal in eight games

Huddersfield Town striker Nahki Wells rescued his side with an injury-time equaliser as Championship strugglers Blackburn Rovers were denied the chance to climb out of the bottom three.

In a game dominated by the hosts, Graham nodded in Liam Feeney's cross to put Rovers ahead on 81 minutes

But, after several near misses, Wells got it right in the 94th minute.

From a right-foot free-kick just outside the box, he bent his sixth goal of the season into the top left corner.

Although denied a first win since 26 November, Owen Coyle's Rovers did at least end the run of four straight defeats they had suffered since drawing 1-1 with Huddersfield at Ewood Park on 3 December.

They remain 22nd, two points adrift of safety, while Huddersfield edge a place up above West Yorkshire rivals Leeds United back into fourth.

The Terriers' run of four straight victories since the first Blackburn game came to an end, but they had enough chances to have maintained their winning run.

In the first minute, Rovers keeper Jason Steele made a double save from Rajiv van La Parra's volley and Kasey Palmer's bicycle kick from the rebound.

Eight shots rained in on the Blackburn goal inside the first half hour, while Wells twice shot over, But, although it looked like a classic hit and run when Rovers went ahead, David Wagner's men held their nerve,

Huddersfield head coach David Wagner: "Nahki is a natural goalscorer and if he stays in the game and works hard then we stay in the game."

"If the opposite of disappointed is happy, then I am happy with the result.

"Few teams would have come back after playing as well as we did and then conceding a late goal. For that reason I am happy.

"The players still trusted and believed in themselves and they kept going right to the end."

Blackburn boss Owen Coyle: "You have to say it was a fantastic point for us against a team that's going well, who I expect to be in the top six at the end of the season.

"But we had given ourselves a great position to win the game and from that point of view it's hard to take.

"We were very disciplined and kept our shape. They had a couple of wonderful chances in the first half and Jason Steele made a couple of good saves, but they had little in the second half.

"We have proved we are capable of scoring goals but we must now start keeping clean sheets and when we are in a good position we must do what it takes to get over the line."
