Blackburn manager Tony Mowbray said:

"Danny Ayala doesn't have to prove anything to anybody in my mind. He's got promotion twice out of this league and led a Middlesbrough team out of this league. He can do it.

"I played until I was 37 at centre-half. He's still a boy in centre-half terms and you can see his worth.

"Even though it was the first clean sheet in a while, I think defensively the team have been pretty good this year. I've always felt we've looked pretty solid and as I said, it's a very young team.

"It's not always the centre-half's fault. I think the team is doing alright and the message from me is keep supporting this group of lads."
