Barclays Premier League
Blackburn 0-1 Man City FT
(HT 0-0)

Edin Dzeko's first Premier League goal allowed Manchester City to take control of the battle for a place in next season's Champions League and plunge Blackburn Rovers deeper into relegation trouble.
Dzeko, who has struggled to make an impact since his £27m move from Wolfsburg in January, made the decisive contribution with the late winner three minutes after coming on as substitute to secure a priceless three points for Roberto Mancini's FA Cup finalists.
The Bosnian's goal saw City establish a firm grip on fourth place and open up a four-point gap on closest rivals Tottenham after a performance that relied more on resilience than sparkle at Ewood Park.
