Ron Atkinson game #22
In their new purple and gold away kit, City crumble after an even first half. Ndlovu causes problems to the home defence and Flowers fouls him, only for Nuddy to hit the post from the spot, his first ever miss. He atones later but it’s Shearer’s day. His first is his 100th for Blackburn.
Peter Ndlovu missed penalty (hit post), 24 minutes
