Michael Carrick admitted feeling like Middlesbrough dropped two points as their winning streak came to an end with a draw against Blackburn Rovers. Despite having opportunities, Boro couldn’t find the decisive moment in attack, while Blackburn’s draw streak slightly eased their relegation concerns.

Reflecting on the game, Carrick expressed frustration, noting the team’s inability to produce a crucial moment, whether in passing or finishing. Despite starting brightly, Forss’s early injury disrupted Boro’s momentum, with his replacement Azaz unable to replicate the same impact.

Losing a key player early can affect the game, Carrick acknowledged, but noted the need to adapt and capitalize on opportunities. Despite the disappointment, Boro secured their third consecutive clean sheet, demonstrating defensive solidity, but Carrick emphasized the importance of winning games over accumulating points.
