Malbranque makes stunning return for Fulham

Blackburn 1 Fulham 3

Steed Malbranque marked his return to the Fulham side today with two goals in the defeat of Blackburn at Ewood Park.

The Frenchman looked a class act during a feisty game that saw both sides reduced to 10 men by referee Phil Dowd.

Craig Short of Blackburn and Liam Rosenior of Fulham were both dismissed in the second half as the visitors rallied to take the points.
