Kean disappointed by Blackburn defeat

Blackburn Rovers manager Steve Kean has expressed his disappointment after his side were beaten for the first time this season by Middlesbrough.

Despite Grant Hanley's late goal, the Championship leaders were downed by a Lukas Jutkiewicz brace at Ewood Park on Friday night.

"We're disappointed to lose," Kean told Sky Sports News. "It took us a bit of time to get going and we left it late."

Kean's job is again under the spotlight following the defeat after Blackburn owners Venky's claimed that they wanted 17 points from the club's opening seven games of the season. Friday's defeat has seen the team accumulate 14 points.
