Blackburn Rovers Achieve First Season Win With 3-0 Triumph Over Hull City

Blackburn Rovers secured their first victory of the season with a commanding 3-0 win over Hull City. Goals from Ryan Hedges, Yuki Ohashi, and Todd Cantwell ensured a smooth triumph at the MKM Stadium.
This win came after earlier losses to West Brom and Birmingham City. Hedges initiated the scoring in the 18th minute by cleverly chipping over Hull's Ivor Pandur.
Elsewhere, Leicester City returned to winning form by defeating Charlton Athletic. Abdul Fatawu's stunning goal was the highlight, marking Charlton's first defeat of the season. The winger cut in from the right and unleashed a powerful shot into the far corner in the 48th minute. This victory ended Leicester's nine-game away league winless streak.
A brilliantly executed free-kick routine allowed Ohashi to double Blackburn's lead shortly after halftime. Moments later, Cantwell capitalised on a rebound to score from close range, sealing a decisive win for John Eustace's team. Blackburn have now won five of their last seven away league games against Hull.
In another match, Watford were denied consecutive wins as Zan Vipotnik equalised for Swansea City in the 82nd minute. Paulo Pezzolano's side initially took the lead with Nestory Irankunda's expertly taken free-kick that left Lawrence Vigoroux helpless in Swansea's goal.
Fatawu's performance has sparked interest in his potential return to the Premier League. His quality play was crucial for Leicester's victory, which also prevented Charlton from celebrating their milestone of 1,000 home matches in the second tier with a positive result.
