Kean: First goal was crucial

16 April 2011 20:00
Blackburn boss Steve Kean claimed not to be worried as his side slipped deeper into relegation trouble with a dismal defeat at Everton. Rovers are now just two points above the Barclays Premier League relegation zone after a 2-0 loss at Goodison Park, in which they hardly tested home goalkeeper Tim Howard. The Lancashire side are without a win in nine league games and have just five matches remaining to ensure they collect enough points for survival. Kean, who has not overseen an away win since December, said: "I don't think it was a worrying performance. The overall performance was of two totally different halves. "We were by far the better in the first and they were the better in the second. I think whoever was going to get the first goal was always going to be in the box seat. "That fell to Everton and that was disappointing."
