Here's how The Lancashire Telegraph scored the players' performances, with a six representing par for the course.
Balazs Toth - 8
Made a couple of really important saves, most impressively denying Peck's deflected shot. Commanded his area well.
Callum Brittain - 8
Did really well to pick out Ohashi who put Blackburn ahead. Positive as always down the right side.
Dom Hyam - 7
Handled Cannon really well alongside his centre-back partner. Was the closest man to Ahmedhodzic when he scored but not it was his man.
Danny Batth - 8
Won plenty of challenges and was dominant in the air. Another fantastic performance.
Yuri Ribeiro - 6
Made some great runs on the overlap but the final ball was lacking at times. Solid going the other way.
Lewis Travis - 7
Snapped into tackles and kept control for Rovers in the middle. Plenty of composure on a day when it really mattered.
Sondre Tronstad - 8
More than held his own against Souza and Peck. Kept the ball well and helped Rovers build attacks from deep.
Tyrhys Dolan - 7
Busy in the first half, producing some good deliveries from the right-hand side.
Todd Cantwell - 7
A couple of penalty appeals in the first half which didn't go his way, probably correctly. Kept Rovers playing without producing that moment of magic.
Ryan Hedges - 7
Did really well in the build-up for the goal, driving directly at goal before feeding Brittain. Went off with a worrying ankle injury.
Yuki Ohashi - 7
Took the finish well, which deflected past Davies. Didn't get much more of a sniff.
Substitutes:
Augustus Kargbo (Hedges, 70') - 5
Struggled to have an impact when he came on. Gave away a few frustrating fouls.
Makhtar Gueye (Dolan, 83') - 6
Won a few headers and rallied the crowd but the ball wouldn't drop for him in the box.
Emmanuel Dennis (Cantwell, 83') - 5
Held onto the ball for too long on occasions at crucial moments. Didn't hit the target with a free header.
Adam Forshaw (Travis, 88') - N/A
On for the final 10 minutes in a midfield reshuffle.
Cauley Woodrow (Tronstad, 88') - N/A
Likewise with Woodrow. A few nice touches but he didn't have long.
Unused substitutes: Pears, Carter, Sanderson, Pickering
