Blackburn are undefeated in five games

Millwall's hopes of moving out of the Championship relegation zone suffered a huge blow as they lost to two late Blackburn goals at Ewood Park.

Rudy Gestede put Rovers ahead on 78 minutes with his 20th strike of the season after he latched onto a deep, left-wing cross.

And deep into injury time Jordan Rhodes made the game safe as he raced clear to slot past David Forde.

The result leaves Millwall four points adrift of safety with two games left.

It means interim boss Neil Harris's prospects of keeping the Lions in the second tier hinge on winning their final two games - against promotion-chasing Derby and Wolves - and hoping Rotherham do not win any any of their remaining three games.

They had chances to beat a Rovers side with very little to play for this season, with Martyn Woolford missing two opportunities and seeing another cleared off the line by Tommy Spurr.

But the London side had not won any of their last six away games, and Blackburn threatened when Chris Brown headed against the bar.

Paris Cowan-Hall squandered a one-on-one for the visitors before Gestede volleyed home late on, and Rhodes then finished off a counter-attack at the death.

Blackburn boss Gary Bowyer: "I've been saying all along, we've got a hell of a lot to play for still.

"We want to finish as high as we can and individuals have got personal targets to reach and hit and you saw two of them get on the scoresheet tonight.

"We could have had more, Tom Cairney's been wasteful in front of goal. He should have done better and we should have been cuter setting one or two up but overall we're pleased with the clinical finishing of the front two again."

Millwall boss Neil Harris: "I'm frustrated, definitely. Their two goalscorers have scored more goals than my whole squad so I think it's clear to see why they've won that game 2-0.

"We talk about the positives, how good we were, how many chances we created, but ultimately to win games of football you have to score goals.

"I thought the whole team was outstanding, the subs were outstanding.

"Spirit, we've got plenty of that, togetherness and desire, and ability in the squad but it doesn't change the result."
