BLACKBURN Rovers reserves have moved into third place in the table this evening after beating their Everton counterparts 4-0.

Following on from Tuesday night's win at Liverpool, first half goals from Micah Evans and Nick Blackman gave Rovers the advantage at the break at Leigh Sports Village.

Josh Morris then curled in a brilliant third towards the end, before Aaron Doran fired in a fourth to seal an impressive and deserved victory.

Former Manchester City youth winger Evans was impressive throughout as was Zach Aley, on the left flank.

A strong Everton side put heavy pressure on the hosts at times after the break but goalkeeper Jake Kean was in top form as he kept them at bay.

ROVERS: Jake Kean, Jackson Ramm, Josh Morris, Grant Hanley, Matty Pearson, Jason Lowe, Micah Evans (Julio Santa Cruz 84), Michael Potts, Nick Blackman (Tom Hitchcock 86), Aaron Doran, Zach Aley (Dami Ajagbe 90)
