Blackburn Rovers boss Gary Bowyer has revealed that Lee Williamson bears no grudge towards Shaun Hutchinson after the Fulham defender was sent off for a poor challenge at the end of the first half.
The 23-year-old was given his marching orders as Rovers won 1-0 thanks to Jordan Rhodes's second-half goal.
Williamson was taken to hospital amid fears of a broken leg, but Bowyer has played down the severity of the injury.
He told the club's official website: "It isn't a break or anything like that and we're delighted that the players have won the game for him.
"[Hutchinson] isn't that type of player, he's apologised and we've no problem with that."
The win takes Blackburn up to ninth in the Championship.
