Rovers' Response Pleases Kean
Rovers' manager Steve Kean praised his Blackburn side's response after they received a rollocking for a poor first half display against Orient at Ewood Park last night. Kean did not like the way his side were playing in the first half despite going a goal up via a Jason Roberts penalty. Then David Mooney scored for the visitors on the hour mark and that seemed to wake Rovers up and they soon raced to a 3-1 lead when Ruben Rochina and summer signing Simon Vukcevic scored in quick succession.And although Dean Cox grabbed a late goal back, Rovers managed to hold on for an important win."I thought we made hard going of it and I wasn't too pleased with how we played the first half," said Kean."We were a bit slow with our passing, there were too many backwards and square and when Orient had it we didn't show enough intensity to get it back so I thought we were poor."But reflecting on the whole game, when they came back into it we should have been four or five goals in front."But for poor finishing and a good goalkeeping performance I think the game would have been out of sight."I felt we had the possession but we didn't get it out wide."
