Bowyer: 'Late goal was sickening'

Blackburn Rovers manager Gary Bowyer has described losing 1-0 to Nottingham Forest by a last-minute goal as "sickening".

Darius Henderson pounced in the 90th minute after Rovers goalkeeper Jake Kean failed to hold onto a cross to maintain Forest's 100% start to the season.

"The late goal was sickening, there was not much in the game but we can take some credit out of the game," BBC Sport quotes Bowyer as saying.

"Forest are promotion favourites and we are rebuilding, but we run them close. We showed some good battling qualities today."

The result leaves Forest in third place in the Championship on goal difference, while Rovers drop to 17th.
