Lucas Joao came off the bench to inspire a Blackburn comeback at managerless Norwich - but it was only enough to earn them a 2-2 draw.
The Portuguese striker struck twice in four minutes to cancel out a first half effort from Cameron Jerome.
But the Canaries, who had played the final 70 minutes with 10 men after the sending off of defender Mitchell Dijks, refused to submit and Jerome fired home his second in the 80th minute to secure a hard-earned point.
Norwich performed well less than 24 hours after the sacking of Alex Neil, but two more dropped points dealt another blow to their fading play-off hopes while for Rovers it was a useful point in their battle to stay in the division.
