Ben Brereton’s goalscoring streak not enough to save Blackburn Rovers

The Chilean scores again in the league, but his side fall to Bristol City and lose ground in the forward positions.

Ben Brereton is on fire. Even his frustrated spell in the Premier League doesn’t affect his performance. This was demonstrated in the duel of Blackburn Rovers against Bristol City, for the Championship, the second category of island football despite the fact that the end result was not favorable. The Chilean celebrated again, although, of course, he left the pitch with the bitterness of a poor result.

The striker played the whole game and although he had a few chances during the game, only in discounts managed to inflate the networks and extend his goalscoring streak in the Championship. It’s his fourth goal in the competition, validating the high price his club have offered him.

Defeat began to take shape in the 42nd minute, with a goal from Tommy Conway. Then Nahki Wells scored twice (55′ and 73′). Even though the hosts were downgraded, with goals from Thyrys Dolan (71′) and Brereton, the underdogs took three golden points to continue fighting for the advanced positions.

a fall that hurts

The result is painful Ben and company, since they lost several places in the standings and moved away from the leaders (Norwich and Sheffield United of Marcelino Núñez). In addition, they show an irregularity that they had not shown in previous championships and that today he has them with four wins and four losses in the overall stats.

To this table is added the pointed criticism received by the management of those of the rose, for not having sold the ram of the Red. Rovers have passed up the opportunity to cash in on a player at his highest price given the current likelihood he won’t sign a new contract. writes the Lancashire Telegraph newspaper.

“The club have committed a lot of resources to his signing and it would have been understandable if they chose to withdraw their money as soon as possible to get a return on that investment. By not doing business in this window, there is a very clear possibility of losing it on a free transfer next summer, or as part of a discounted deal in January, unless you sign up for a new deal.

Next Saturday when they visit Wigan, Blackburn Rovers will have a chance for revenge. And Brereton, to extend his scoring streak.
