Blackburn boss Kean admits Norwich draw feels like defeat

Blackburn Rovers boss Steve Kean admits their 3-3 thriller with Norwich City felt like a defeat.

Kean admitted the 3-3 draw at Norwich felt like a defeat after Grant Holt's stoppage-time penalty denied the Premier League strugglers a much-needed win at Carrow Road.

He said: "It feels like a defeat because a decision like that in five minutes of stoppage time is very hard to take.

"I have looked at the penalty decision from a few angles and Steven was fouled at the back post and is appealing for a free-kick and the ball drops behind his shoulder and hits the top of his arm.

"I don't think there was any intent and we feel as it if was a foul.

"For us to do so well and to have the game in the palm of our hands, it is tough to take."
