BLACKBURN’S bloodied goalkeeper Paul Robinson believes the dramatic late point he helped rescue at Wigan on Saturday can provide the platform for his side’s sustained march up the Premier League table.
Robinson required stitches in his forehead after his intervention in the eighth minute of injury time, when he entered the Wigan box for a last-gasp corner and won the penalty from which Ayegbeni Yakubu netted his second goal of the match to see the game finish 3-3.
Robinson says the manner in which Rovers achieved it will stand them in good stead for upcoming games against Stoke, Swansea and Sunderland.
Robinson said: “We have got some winnable games coming up but if we show the attitude we played with in the second half today I’m sure we are going to pick up points.”
Wigan’s goals came from Jordi Gomez, Gary Caldwell and Albert Crusat.
Rovers, who hadDavid Dunn sent off early in the second-half, also scored via Junior Hoilett.
