Isaac Hayden does well to get his head to the ball there.
But it's a difficult one, he can't get much purchase on it.

Isaac Hayden does well to get his head to the ball there.
But it's a difficult one, he can't get much purchase on it.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
A Gabriel Sara free-kick causes panic in the Rovers defence and Teemu Pukki's shot eventually squirms wide for a corner.
Isaac Hayden is up well but his header is easily saved by Thomas Kaminski.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
Tyler Morton, who had the assist on Blackburn's goal, nearly has a second assist of the day.
He sends in a wickedly delivered free-kick that just misses all the runners in the middle.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
Norwich are well on top now but they trail to that early Ben Gibson own goal.
Thomas Kaminski in the Rovers goal is yet to be forced into a meaningful save.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
That's a waste.
That Daniel Ayala foul on Teemu Pukki gave the home side a free-kick in a very promising area.
However, Gabriel Sara's shot is into the wall and Danel Sinani then goes for a very ambitious shot from the angle with a bouncing ball.
He makes good connection to be fair but it's well over.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
First booking of the day goes the way of Rovers defender Daniel Ayala.
The ex-Norwich defender is shown a yellow card for a pretty cynical trip on a rampaging Teemu Pukki.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
Ooof!
Blackburn are VERY committed to playing out from the back and they've been caught out doing it a few times this season.
Teemu Pukki almost catches Rovers goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski taking too long to get the ball out on his own goalline.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
Norwich get back on the ball after the initial corner is cleared and Isaac Hayden eventually sees a firmly struck volley blocked.
Better from the home team.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
The home side are growing into it and they win their first corner of the match.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
Blackburn look like they have a real threat when they go forward.
Sam Gallagher and Ben Brereton Diaz give them a proper presence up at the top end of the pitch.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
Norwich just trying to feel their way into this but the home fans are not happy with the sidewards passing.
A long ball is then pumped forward to nobody, to much jeering from the Carrow Road faithful.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
That early Rovers goal has really quietened the home support.
The Canaries have lost three of their past five home league games - as many as they had in their previous 39 home games in the Championship.
Norwich 0-1 Blackburn
That early goal has really given Blackburn a boost.
They came into this game on the back of two heavy defeats by local rivals Burnley and Preston and they needed a good start today.
They've got it.
Ben Gibson own goal
WOW!
Tyler Morton clips a clever free-kick in for the run of Sam Gallagher.
The Rovers forward takes an air shot but the ball hits Ben Gibson on the shin and flies into the bottom corner.
Norwich 0-0 Blackburn
First chance of the day goes to the home side.
Good play down their left ends with a ball into the area being called out as far as Danel Sinani on the edge of the D, but he shanks his effort well high and wide.
Norwich 0-0 Blackburn

Norwich v Blackburn (17:30 GMT)
Big thanks to our good friends at Opta for this gem.
None of Blackburn's 22 league games this season have been drawn – it's the longest run from the start of a second tier campaign without a draw since 1934-35 (Bolton 26 games, Manchester United 24).
What was going on in that 1934-35 season?! Will Blackburn's long wait for a draw come to an end today?
Norwich v Blackburn (17:30 GMT)
Norwich gaffer Dean Smith goes with the same 11 that started last week's 1-0 win at Swansea.
Absolutely NO messing from Blackburn boss Jon Dahl Tomasson. He's made SIX changes from the 4-1 home reverse by Preston. Striker Sam Gallagher is one of the players restored to the starting XI.

Norwich v Blackburn (17:30 GMT)
Our final game of the day sees the teams lying in fifth and fourth in the Championship face off.
Norwich have been in indifferent form since a great run at the start of the campaign but two wins in their past three will have boosted the mood around Carrow Road a little.
Blackburn's fans are probably in a less cheerful mood, despite being a point better off than the Canaries.
Rovers have suffered successive derby defeats by Burnley and Preston, both by three-goal margins, and supporters will hope to see a response today.
Team news coming right up.
