Benni McCarthy had put Rovers ahead with a crisp strike on the stroke of half-time and Jason Roberts headed a second after 84 minutes.

But substitute Daniel Sturridge drilled the ball home after pouncing on a poor defensive header from Andre Ooijer.

Robinho, who earlier missed a good headed chance, then slotted home deep in injury time after Sturridge picked him out with a great pass.

The result means that Blackburn extended their unbeaten run under Sam Allardyce to three games but it will nonetheless feel like two points dropped for the home team.

Results earlier on Sunday meant that Rovers had started the fixture bottom of the league – and victory would have seen them leapfrog both West Brom and Stoke.

However, City’s late riposte means that Rovers just move ahead of the Baggies on goal difference to go 19th in the table.
