Luton & Blackburn settle for point each

Published on: 21 November 2020

Luke Berry's goal was his second of the season for Luton

Blackburn substitute Sam Gallagher netted just five minutes after coming on to earn Tony Mowbray's side a point against Luton.

The Hatters, who have now failed to win in four games at Kenilworth Road, went ahead when Luke Berry stabbed home from close range midway through the second half.

But Gallagher pulled Rovers level three minutes later, pouncing on a Barry Douglas knockdown to fire in his second goal of the season.

Both sides had opportunities to win it, with Luton goalkeeper Simon Sluga producing a late double save to make sure of the draw.
