Two-goal Reeves helps Dons beat Rovers

Two goals from Ben Reeves helped MK Dons see off 10-man Blackburn Rovers 3-0 in the Championship.

Reeves converted a penalty after 10 minutes when Adam Henley was deemed to have pulled down Josh Murphy in the box, with the right-back receiving a red card in the process.

Simon Church then doubled Dons' lead after the break after he headed in a Murphy cross.

Rovers striker Jordan Rhodes saw a header from just a couple of yards out saved at point-blank range by David Martin, before Reeves eventually added his second of the afternoon following some one-touch football with Carl Baker and Jake Forster-Caskey.

The win sees Dons move up to 16th in the league, one place below Rovers.
