All White skipper Ryan Nelsen pulled up injured in Blackburn's hard fought 1-1 draw with Man City at Eastlands overnight. Nelsen was withdrawn 5 minutes before half time after a typically strong performance for Rovers. The injury was picked up in a challenge with City midfielder Yaya Toure earlier in the half. So far, there has been no word on the extent of the injury or the likely recovery time.
Nelsen was the only Kiwi in action in the Premiership. Neither Chris Wood or Winston Reid featured for their clubs, West Brom and West Ham. But down in the Championship Tommy Smith put in another full shift for Ipswich as the came away from Portsmouth with another useful point after a nil all draw. Ipswich are now third in the Championship.
